About this event

Since the last event, we have listened to all of your anon requests for the next specialty you'd like to see. We are honoured to announce...

Our Guest Speaker:

  • TBC!!!

Each month, we are privileged to have incredible surgeons from different areas share their wisdom with us. You'd be surprised to know they don't bite, so don't miss out on being a part of the community! :)

Event info:

After brief intros, we'll have a 30 min open Q&A, so bring all your burning questions.

We’ll dive into real issues: why Ophthalmology surgery, work-life balance, burnout, and what it really takes to thrive in surgery and explore practical solutions together.

Laid-back, inspiring, and refreshingly real ... this is the conversation every future Ophthalmology surgeon needs.

After the session, we'll move onto a FREE anatomy workshop!! (Attendance at the talk is *mandatory* for entrance to the workshop).

Grab your ticket from our page: (FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED https://www.qmsu.org/groups/surgical/)

Bonus info:

  • Certificates awarded to those who attend at least 3 of the 4 talks over the year 
  • (As this is the 3rd talk, some of you will now be eligible if you attend!!)
