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.
