Dr. Bandino then completed a Dermatopathology Fellowship at the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston, SC with his mentor, Dr. Dirk Elston. With this additional subspecialty training, Dr. Bandino returned to the military Dermatology Residency program in San Antonio as faculty and has served as Academic Director, Lab Director, and Medical Director. He is currently the Program Director and Associate Professor.
