Increasing Diversity in Dermatology Residencies

To the Editor We read the article by Chen and Shinkai with great interest. Diversity in dermatology is a key topic, and this work helps bring it into the spotlight that it truly deserves. However, 2 underrepresented ethnic groups in dermatology were neglected in the article. Native American/Alaska Natives represent 0.9% of the US population, but only 0.2% of dermatologists. Furthermore, Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islanders are also considered underrepresented in dermatology (representing 0.2% of the US population). It may be of value in the future to fully include all underrepresented racial groups in dermatology because these initiatives evolve to enhance the successes of these types of efforts. Not doing so may cause smaller underrepresented groups to feel as if their unique experiences are not being accounted for.
