Mentorship in #eyecare - Dr. Alison Early

Dr. Alison Early shares her view on mentorship. "The value of mentorship continues to increase as I progress through my career! I have found that there is always more to learn, and there is always someone willing to teach." Dr. Early's mentorship pearls: • Write out a 5 year career plan/goals • Talk about your goals with colleagues • Take advantage of offers for mentorship. Exchange contact information and send a follow up email or text shortly after your interaction! • Bonus points: open yourself to mentoring someone else! There are amazing resources available such as @youngmdconnect to continue to network and find mentors. If you are interested in learning something new or developing a new skillset to be intimidated to reach out. Everyone starts at zero! #mentorship #ophthalmology #ophtholife #ophthoresident #eyedoctor
