<p>hello i was wondering if anyone could tell me what kind of schooling it takes to become a dermatologist? how much money would they make? i'm honestly not in it for the money, but i'm not exactly sure if i want to stay in school until my mid-30s and be a surgeon. how would one go about finding a job and such? thanks for any help.</p>
<p>4 years undergraduate, 4 years medical school, about 3 years dermatology residency. Average salary according to the following website is $194,781. Not sure if that's before or after taxes.
