Hey guys, welcome back to the Tree Anarchy. This is your host Echta, and today I have a wonderful guest with me that is going to tell us a lot about dermatology, but also her wonderful brand.

It's going to be an interesting conversation because as many of you know, we discussed dermatology and the options from a prescription standpoint a lot here, you know.

I know the conversation comes up quite a bit, but we never really get to dive in, and so I'm really excited about that piece of this conversation.

So without further doing, I introduce you guys to Dr. Amy Brodsky, who is a board certified dermatologist,

and she also is the co-founder of Dermain. So welcome Dr Brodsky. I'm so excited to

chat with you to learn from you today. Welcome to show. It's great to be here.

I'd love to learn more about you. What made you go into

dermatology?

Oh, great question.

So honestly, getting into medical school, I kind of just applied on a bet.

I had no interest in going and I was a biomedical engineer as my background so I just kind of had the classes and my boyfriend at the time was trying to get in so I kind of like just to piss him off I decided I would try to get in and I got in and then while I was doing my rotations and everything I thought I was going to do either Obie Gine or gastronyrology and then by that time I was dating somebody else so I went with my boyfriend to his dermatology office and his dermatologist is like what do you want to be when you grow up and I'm like I don't know and he said you should do Derm.

So that's when I kind of peaked my interest in Derm.

And then I started doing dermatology, you know, rotations and I've always been an oil painter, you know, in my past life I still do it.

So for me, dermatology was sort of the extension of the canvas and the paintbrush and it's very much color oriented and visual it's a visual speciality.

So that's why I like it.

That's pretty cool.

No, I think Durham is such an interesting field

for anyone exploring, you know,

at that stage of residency and match and stuff.

Like, it's a really cool field to get your hands into a lot of different aspects of medicine I feel like so yeah I mean skin is your largest organ of your body

It's probably the number one residency, so it's hard to match in it, but it affords you a nice lifestyle.

Nothing's too urgent usually.
