Our latest "Tale of Mentorship" comes from Dr. Gillian Wooldridge, DO, CCD, Primary Care Sports Medicine Physician at the Houston Methodist Orthopedics and Sports Medicine.

"As a sports medicine physician, or “jock doc,” I didn’t initially picture a career focusing on bone health. Despite my original plan to become an endocrinologist, I pushed much of that interest to the side when my career aspirations changed. The early part of my career focused primarily on the comprehensive care of athletes as well as musculoskeletal conditions in the general population.

My patient care and role changed drastically in March 2020, much like it did for many physicians around the world, when the COVID-19 pandemic struck. Life as a sports physician was very different when sports stopped and we had to cancel elective procedures to save gloves and other supplies for hospitalized patients. I found myself struggling to picture what I would do with my career if society didn’t return to what we previously considered normal." Read more... https://iscd.org/tales-of-mentorship/
