Practical tips for a fellow expert...

For doctors early in their careers, I would advise that they strive to stay inquisitive and nimble, with a passion for learning and thinking outside the box. Try not to become too comfortable with the status quo; instead, look for large and small ways to improve the delivery of eyecare. Challenge yourself to take one new skills transfer course, teach a technique or attend a small meeting once a year to keep learning, contributing, and evolving.
