After earning her Doctor of Medicine at Wayne State University, Dr. McLellan completed an internship in internal medicine at Loyola University Health System and her dermatology residency at Henry Ford Health System where she also served as chief resident and initiated a supportive oncodermatology clinic. Dr. McLellan received additional oncodermatology training at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and at the Institut Gustave Roussy in Paris, France.

Playing an active role in the Montefiore Einstein Dermatology Residency, Dr. McLellan is the Director of Resident Research and regularly lectures residents and medical students at both dermatology and oncology meetings. She has served as a mentor to many residents and students and directs a year long oncodermatology research fellowship for medical students taking a year off for research.
