Walk into your first day in ophthalmology knowing the anatomy, the vocabulary, the patient workflow, and exactly what the physician expects from you — before you ever touch a piece of equipment. 12 modules. Built by someone who has held every role on the team.
With over a decade in Orlando-area ophthalmology, I built my career from ophthalmic scribe and technician through roles as Clinical Research Coordinator and Supervisor of Retina & Clinical Research — and now serve as Manager of Clinical Operations. I've trained countless new staff through OJT and know exactly what people wish they'd learned before their first day.
