Family physicians are in an ideal situation to examine the skin during routine visits, but studies indicate they are not well trained to detect or treat skin cancers. We piloted a structured, longitudinal, hands-on procedural curriculum to improve family medicine residents’ ability to identify and manage skin cancers. Family medicine residency programs wishing to improve the diagnosis and management of skin cancer by family physicians might consider trialing our structured curriculum and procedure clinic.</p>}, number={6}, journal={Canadian Medical Education Journal}, author={Rivet, Christine and Motamedi, Farhad and Burns, Joseph and Archibald, Douglas}, year={2021}, month={Jul.}, pages={108–111} }
