Dermatologist Career Research Paper

Going into the pre-med program at the ATA I had previously thought about being an Orthodontist. It was something i found very very interesting. Going through the pre med class and interning at a pediatric dental office over the summer i decided that was far from what i wanted to do. I am almost positive that i would like to become a Dermatologist or something along those lines. After graduating high school i want to attend Horry Georgetown Technical College. After this two year program i will transfer to a four year college. I'm not 100% sure on what college i would like to attend but i'm strongly thinking about attending Charleston Southern.

This speciality does seem interesting but i am just going to stick with a regular dermatologist for this
