Doctoberfest! Health Care Career Question and Answer Session In-Person

Do you have questions about working in the health care field? Doctors and medical professionals will be sharing their stories about what schools they attended, where they worked and what they have enjoyed the most about working in health care.

Meet, Jeff Berger, a developmental optometrist with a background in primary care optometry, disease management, and diagnosis and treatment of binocular dysfunctions and visual processing disorders, currently working as a contract optometrist and practice consultant.
