Why I fell in love with dermatology: Dermatology is a specialty in which your patients "wear" their disease, which creates an opportunity to provide significant improvements to quality of life, not only from a strictly medical perspective, but also from an emotional standpoint. Along with this, there is such a breadth of diseases and presentations that you are never sure what you will see on a day-to-day basis.
