Blake Williamson, MD, MPH, and Gary Wörtz, MD, return for a new season of Ophthalmology off the Grid! This season, the hosts dive into the basics of training and education at the most prestigious programs in ophthalmology across the United States. In this episode, they invite Pavlina Kemp, MD, residency program director at the University of Iowa Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences, and Samuel Tadros, MD, a PGY-4 ophthalmology resident, to share a state of the union on ophthalmology residency. They discuss what it takes to stand out during the application and interviewing process and find success in the field.
