Residency for dermatologist is only 3 years. I plan on working either in a hospital or well established clinic for my residency years or if i am allowed to, doing a mix of both.

Right after residency I plan on obtaining my licnese to practice dermatology whether that be for a well established clinic or starting my own Derm-Clinic where i plan on doing mostly cosmetic procedures.
