ADVANCE speaks with Carolyn Bogal, NP, about the dermatology specialty and opportunities for nurse practitioners. Bogal works at the Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Boston. She is our dermatology columnist and a member of the ADVANCE for Nurse Practitioners editorial advisory board. Read her most recent column, about treating actinic keratosis, in our digital edition.

NP Specialty Q & A is a new, bimonthly multimedia series exploring different nurse practitioner specialties. Look for it under the Multimedia section on the ADVANCE for Nurse Practitioners homepage, www.advanceweb.com/NP.

I am also looking for a clinical site in Denver Colorado, where the dermatologist is willing to teach FNP. Any suggestion?
Thanks

I am very excited to see the need for NP's in derm as that is what I want to specilize in. I currently only have critical care experience(30 yrs) and I am just finishing the BSN portion of the BSN, MSN, FNP program. I would love to do my NP clinicals in a derm setting to gain experience. Hopefully this article will help.
