Meet your Optometry Mentors!

This forum made possible through the generous support of
SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.

Hello SDN users.

I am happy to volunteer my services as a mentor to pre, current, and post graduate optometry students. I am 7 years out of school, worked for a few years, took a couple of years off to pursue other interests and am now back in the game having recently purchased a practice.

I was asked to specify what questions I will and will not take. I will take ANY and ALL questions with the EXCEPTION of how much money I make. I know that salaries and income are always of great interests to students so I don't mind talking generalities in that area. I will say however that I make a lot more than the person serving you your Starbucks in the morning but I make a lot less than Shaquille O'Neill.
 
I'm a new mentor in optometry. I practice mainly in a hospital setting in a large metropolitan population center.

I mainly cover the scope of practice of optometry in a interdisciplinary setting and novel ways for optometrists to practice outside of the traditional office-based practice.
