  • Skin Conditions and Diseases Edition 6

    Dermatology Conditions Online CME

    Skin conditions are incredibly common and account for over 12% of all diseases seen by family physicians. From the head and shoulders to the knees and toes, skin protects the entire body and can be damaged in a wide variety of ways — including injury, fungi, bacteria, and beyond.

    Since family physicians provide the first health care contact for many patients, it is vital to provide caring, high-quality care for skin diseases. This online skin conditions CME is designed to provide practical training to equip family physicians to confidently and accurately address the breadth of skin issues. By the end of this course, you’ll be able to:

    • Address common conditions like acne, rosacea, seborrhea and alopecia
    • Diagnose bacterial and fungal skin infections
    • Treat skin wounds, ulcers, sores and bites
    • Perform dermoscopy, suturing and skin biopsy
    • And more

    Format

    This is a new online CME course adapted from the most recent AAFP dermatology conditions conference. It features more than two dozen video courses and has interactive question/answer elements built in.
