Navigating the Holidays. Doctor Advice

December doesn’t have to be burnout season. Dr. Sumitra Khandelwal shares thoughtful guidance for young #ophthalmologists navigating one of the most demanding months of the year. December can be a strategic time to grow your practice, with increased patient interest in year-end procedures and opportunities created by colleagues traveling or taking time off. Just as important, she emphasizes intentional planning. Decide early which days are protected, which are flexible, and where boundaries are non-negotiable. Building momentum in your career should still leave room for family, rest, and recovery. Strong planning now sets you up for a healthier, more balanced start to the new year. #eyecare #healthcaretips #burnout
