Masters Dermatologic Association
About
Welcome to the Masters Dermatologic Association! The Masters Dermatologic Association (MDA) was founded in 1974 by a group of like-minded dermatologists as an organization that would hold meetings centered around golf, education and camaraderie.
Over the years the Masters Dermatologic Association has held outstanding meetings at venues including Pebble Beach, Pinehurst, PGA National, Streamsong Resort, Bandon Dunes, Silverado and several other well known destinations.
The scientific sessions feature several well known speakers within the dermatologic community and cover a broad range of topics in a relaxed, informal setting.
