Dr. Maharaj joins our podcast again to discuss how optometrists have common personality traits that could either benefit our careers or become our downfalls. These common traits also begin to reveal an interesting perspective on why optometry is beginning to shape shift towards specialization and tiering of medical optometry and refractive care.


In the second half of our conversation, we brought up the status of our mental health. We walk with Dr. Maharaj about mental exhaustion and burnout that is currently present in our profession, and what strategies we've done or need to start doing in order to conquer those feelings together as a group.
