Congratulations to the 2022 University of Michigan Medical School Dermatology Residency Class!
The Department of Dermatology hosted a reception for our resident graduates and their families on Thursday, June 16, 2022 at the Gandy Dancer restaurant in Ann Arbor. This celebration was our first traditional in-person graduation reception since 2019. Held as a "hybrid" event, the ceremony was also live-streamed on Zoom allowing clinical colleagues, friends and family to attend the celebration remotely.
The Dermatology Residency Class of 2022 honored Dr. Mari Paz Castanedo Tardan with the William B. Taylor Resident Teaching Award for Best Resident Educator.
"Dr. Castanedo goes the extra mile for patient care and resident education, providing patients with the highest standard of care, while also ensuring residents learn as much as possible each day in clinic," the graduating class said. "She is also an amazing mentor, spending countless hours advising us about our personal growth and careers. We have all benefited from her wise words, derm-related or not. Thank you Dr. Castanedo for all that you do, you are a true gem and we are lucky to have you here at UM!"
