"The Dermatologist has its own dynamic website and tablet app with current and archived issues, and web exclusive articles to be fully accessible through http://www.the-dermatologist.com." Readers can download the FREE app (The Derm) for their iPads or Android Tablets to access full issues of The Dermatologist and supplements in digital format.

Widely read by physicians and residents specializing in the practice of dermatological medicine as well as nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants and those associated with this specialty, The Dermatologist will continue to include such topics that have long been praised by readers.
