The University of Toronto program is an official fellowship accredited by the American College of Mohs Surgeons . It follows all the rules and regulations outlined by the ACMS fellowship guidelines (https://www.mohscollege.org/UserFiles/SISRB/
PPGRevisions2021ACGMEEquivalencyUpdatesFINAL06-21.pdf) and also falls within the rules of University of Toronto post-graduate training. We are academic Dermatologists and Mohs Surgeons who work at Women's College Hospital within the University of Toronto.
We are part of the SF match for Mohs Surgery (http://www.sfmatch.org), and therefore you must enroll in the SF match to be considered for our fellowship.
You must have completed a full dermatology residency by the time of the fellowship
We have 3 Mohs surgeons and we do Mohs 5 days a week. We complete about 3000 cases per year as a program. We work closely with an Oculoplastic Surgeon, Plastic Surgeons, Head and Neck Facial Plastic Surgeons and Dermatopathologists. We expect the fellow will attend clinics with each of these colleagues, and others such as Radiation Oncology and General Dermatology, to advance their knowledge and skills in these areas. We also expect the fellow to complete a fellowship research project, as per the ACMS guidelines.
Our fellows are funded, either by their own supporting systems (self-funded from a government or University), or funded by us. The typical funding would be equivalent to the current Ontario PGY3 salary (linked here) but will vary, depending on several factors. https://myparo.ca/your-contract/#annual-salary-scale)
