Thank you to Roxana Godiwalla, MD and Steven Seto, MD for attending the AAO Mid-Year Forum and representing Wisconsin as Resident Ambassadors. We asked them both to provide a brief summary of their experience attending the event, see below:
Dr. Godiwalla: Excellent! Felt so humbled to have the opportunity to speak with government officials, and so proud of our Ophthalmologists across the country! Looking forward to being part of advocacy again!
Dr. Seto: Overall an excellent and important experience that brought light onto the legislative side of medicine and ophthalmology. I think this experience was not only worth attending but was important enough that I would suggest all residents be required to attend it at least once in their training. I would personally be interested in attending future MYFs from my experience this year, both as a resident and in my future practice.
