In terms of MD...

1) Dermatology, obviously, which is the study of the skin and its components - the only specialty that deals exclusively with skin disorders -also probably the hardest residency to get into at this moment


2) Plastic surgery


3) Rheumatology/immunology to a certain extent


4) Basically any surgical specialty requires some knowledge of skin anatomy, physiology and healing. Burn/trauma surgeons frequently perform skin grafts on patients with severe 3rd degree burns.


5) Family medicine/general internal medicine and pediatrics since they see everything, and you will see a lot of rashes in kids.


Beyond the MD, most plastic surgeons have an "aesthetician" in their office who may perform basic procedures like facials...they also help patients during the healing process by offering tips on makeup and other strategies to hide surgical scars as they are healing. They also help with skin care in general and will often sell specialized products in the office.

In the pharmacy, you have a pharmacist, pharmacy technician, and cashier.

The pharmacy technician inputs the prescription into the computer, which then prints out a label for you to find the drug, count it out, and label the bottle.

The pharmacist then checks your work, verifies the pill in the bottle matches the image on the screen, verifies that the name of the drug matches, checks for drug interactions, etc.

If there was a misfill or error found in selling the wrong prescription to the wrong patient, then we must contact the patient to verify the error and make sure who got the right prescription and who got the wrong one. Upon doing so, you file an incident report.

Medical care is treatment; the doctors, nurses and technicians who actually treat the patients.

"Health care" and "health coverage" generally mean "health insurance"; who PAYS for the medical care. So "health care reform" doesn't mean reforming what the doctors are doing, and "Obamacare" doesn't create doctors. They arrange for the payment of the doctors and hospitals who actually provide medical treatment.

In fact, our current systems of "health care" is causing doctors and hospitals to go out of business, because the government systems don't pay enough money for the hospitals to continue to operate. And doctors don't see patients for free.
