Dentists are the cousins of Optometry! In this Eyes Up episode we hear from Dr. Melissa Torres who started out her career as dental assistant and was able to keep fighting for her dreams and is now a dentist. We learn from her that if you’re scared and fearful of doing something then you know you are doing something right. We also chat about the eye tooth connection and how certain dental conditions can also manifest as ocular conditions.

Multi-practice owner Dr. Lucia Patino shares with us her journey in private practice optometry and yes it all starts in Queens, New York. She is also the very first optometrist that I ever shadowed who introduced me to the incredible world of eye care.
We discuss how for first-generation folks like ourselves failure is not an option and that the biggest moves in our lives happen years after graduating.

Dr. Jessica Duran and I often wonder, how did we do it? We find ourselves in awe of having this fulfilling career as optometrists and being able to take care of people’s eyes because in our situations as first-gens we didn’t necesarily have college aspirations but luckily someone saw us and our potential and said “Hey, you can do this”.
We also talk about how when you first graduate it’s hard to find a full time position with benefits. When practicing in big cities we often have to piece together our schedule. Because of this we can become loyal to a fault and sometimes you have to learn to walk away. She opens up about her experiences navigating optometry contracts and on knowing your worth.
