The UT Tyler School of Medicine, in collaboration with U.S. Dermatology Partners Tyler, is seeking applications for a Dermatology Residency Program Director position. The Department of Dermatology at UT Tyler School of Medicine will launch educational programs for medical students within the next year and plans to apply to become an ACGME-approved 6-resident training program.

As Program Director, you will play a pivotal role in shaping the future of dermatology residents. Your contribution will extend beyond the educational environment and mentorship, as you will also provide administrative oversight of the residency program. By working with faculty and operational leaders, you will support and educate our resident physicians to become productive and respected dermatologists within their medical communities.  This role is not just about training future dermatologists, but about significantly impacting the health and well-being of the East Texas community.

The first UT Tyler School of Medicine class commenced in June 2023, consisting of 40 students from the East Texas Region. This medical school aims to enlist students from the local community to cater to community needs, engage in research, and tackle health issues specific to East Texas families. UT Tyler operates twelve residency programs, with two more slated to launch this summer.

As a Dermatologist at UT Tyler, you will not only be part of a group of mission-driven physicians working to correct a critical shortage of physicians in the region, but also have the opportunity for significant personal and professional growth. UT Tyler Health Science Center plans to sponsor more than 200 resident physicians throughout the UT Health East Texas Health System by 2025. This position offers an X-day work week and requires teaching experience within the last three years, allowing you to share your knowledge and expertise with the next generation of dermatologists.

At UT Tyler, you will join a team that is not just supportive but also deeply respectful of one another. We value each team member’s contribution and are committed to improving the health and well-being of East Texas residents. We believe in fostering a collaborative and inclusive environment where everyone’s voice is heard and respected.
