Dermpath CORE Exam Review

It is 100% FREE

This review provides the opportunity to prepare for the board exam at no cost to you. Board Reviews can be very costly when you consider paying for airfare, renting a car, and getting a hotel room, all to sit under a microscope and look at cases. Now it's all digital, and you can do all reviews from the luxury of your home!

Live Access to Dermatopathologists

Dr. Tom Davis and Dr. DeSantis are double board certified dermatopathologists passionate about teaching residents. Therefore, their passion offers opportunities for residents to ask questions, get clarification on cases, and engage in real-time to get the answers they need. From there, they can build the necessary confidence for successful pass rates.

Some training organizations limit who can register; we don't! Regardless of your resident post-graduate year, you are welcome to participate.
