Be a Mentor

Mentor Program

My experience with the mentor program has provided me with more than I had ever expected. My mentor made a tremendous effort in assisting me with my future career decisions and helped me find a research mentor for the summer.
--Rita

My mentor is not only an excellent role model for my medical school education, but also one of my best friends! I can't wait to work with him during my Family Medicine rotation this winter; I know there is much more I can learn from him about the practice of medicine.
--Andrew

My mentor was awesome. He is a great teacher, educator and mentor. I felt he added to my learning on how to interact with patients as well as eye health and disease.
