Well SDN, it's been a minute. But, after almost 9 years in private practice, something reminded me to check back in with the old ophthalmology forum. This place used to be my go to online community back in med school and residency, and in 2004, we actually started the anonymous board score/interview postings, to let people know what types of scores are needed to get interviews. Regardless, the past 9 years has been such a wild ride, and I'm happy to be a resource to anyone on here looking for some perspectives. My real name is Gary Wortz, and I'm in private practice in Lexington, KY. I actually have a podcast where I discuss current topics called "Ophthalmology Off the Grid" that has been a lot of fun to create and hopefully could be a good resource if you are looking for practical tips about what its like in practice. I will say this, I am still so glad that I chose ophthalmology and would be happy to share anything I can to help others who are just starting out. Glad to be back.
