What is your average day like?
“My average day is busy. In the mornings, we go over cases with the overnight doctors just to go over care to make sure we’re all on the same page. From 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., I’m taking in new appointments (and re-check appointments) and assessing them. Usually, we’ll do endoscopies as well.”
Do you have mentors?
“I don’t really have formal mentorship, but I work closely with the other internal medicine specialists who have been here for a couple years. They’ll guide me with procedures that I’m a little newer at or guide me with cases. It’s a really supportive environment.”
