(Editor's note: Apologies for the mild echo!)

TL;DR: The application deadline for the 2025-2026 cohort of LearnSkin's Integrative Dermatology Certificate Program (IDCP) is April 21st, 2025!

As a proud and transformed IDCP alumnus, I know how this program helps dermatologists expand their approach to patient care and reignite their passion for dermatology.

From evidence-informed functional medicine to new treatment strategies, IDCP provides practical tools to enhance how we support our patients with the comprehensive, holistic dermatology care I know so many of them are seeking.

If you want to join and learn form a forward thinking, supportive, growth-minded community and expand your dermatology toolkit, opportunity is knocking... will you answer?

🔗 Applications are due April 21st, 2025 -- Scholarships are available. I got one last year!

Please note, this episode is NOT sponsored by LearnSkin or IDCP. It's fully funded by me (Dr. Lewellis). Now on with the show...

They say, "Never meet your heroes."

I say, sure, sound advice... but if you do, make sure to invite them on your podcast!
