Abstract
High-risk skin cancers can be difficult to treat for the dermatologist and Mohs surgeon. Multidisciplinary tumor board conferences create a team of health care specialists focused on reviewing patient cases and offering advice on individualized management and treatment. These tumor board meetings create a space for multiple providers from different specialties to collaborate to craft an effective treatment plan for patients. Furthermore, they also provide up-to-date education in cutaneous oncology for residents, referring providers, and staff. Residents gain invaluable experience in managing patients with difficult or advanced skin cancers through participation in a tumor board.
