| 1 Min Read

Are you interested in mentoring medical students and residents? The AMA Lesbian Gay Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) Advisory Committee is piloting a mentorship program during an upcoming AMA meeting and is seeking physicians at all career levels to participate, including residents and fellows. If you are interested in participating, send an email to the committee with the following information:

  • Your career stage (senior physician, mid-career physician, young physician, fellow, resident or other)
  • The type(s) of mentorship you’re interested in providing (Examples include application advice for employment positions, including the Match; navigating a career in medicine as an LGBT physician; and how to make LGBT health a career focus.)
  • Your medical specialty/subspecialty

The committee appreciates feedback and looks forward to sharing more details as this program comes together.
