TDD’s Guide to Maui Derm 2024; Stay Tuned for Daily Coverage

It’s almost Maui Derm time.

Led by George Martin, MD, a dermatologist in Kihei, Maui Derm is considered a top-tier event in dermatology.

Hundreds of leading dermatologists, residents, and industry insiders are heading to the island for an exciting meeting packed with practice-changing lectures, panel discussions, workshops, and late-breaking research on a wide array of medical, cosmetic, and practice management topics – with a lot of socializing mixed in.

This year’s agenda promises to keep pace with the dynamic activity and innovation happening within dermatology today, and attendees will be able to take what they learned from the podium and apply it to their practice immediately following the conference.

The five-day conference, which takes place at the Grand Wailea in Maui from January 22 -26, 2024, will also be broadcast via live stream.
