*2020-21 program evaluation data
Have your patients come in asking about alternative treatment options?
Many patients are now using complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) therapies, whether they disclose that in clinic or not, and are seeking practitioners who are knowledgeable with regards to taking an integrative approach with treatment options.
However, current dermatology education does not include an evidence-based curriculum around diet, nutrition, mind-body approaches, stress management, botanicals, skin product ingredients, or nutritional supplements despite patient demand.
When patients ask about topics not covered in conventional medical schools or training programs, practitioners are often left to look up the medical research on their own with no centralized, compiled, and vetted summary of the information. The IDCP is an opportunity to gain the confidence, skills, and support network necessary to incorporate a patient-centric and scientific approach to developing an integrative approach in your practice.
InYoung Kim, MD — IDCP 2021 Cohort Alumnus
Featuring a curriculum that covers both the clinical and business sides of developing an integrative practice, this program distills decades of hard earned experience from leading integrative dermatologists into an immersive 9 month certificate program.

- Common and Advanced Dermatological Conditions
