First Day Jitters

Post date: Aug 20, 2011 2:7:33 PM

When I attended the TLC National Meeting in St. Louis at the beginning of August, everyone kept asking me if I was nervous about becoming the new Clinical Director at TLC Tysons Corner. Honestly, I think that I was just so overwhelmed at the meeting ... so many new faces and detailed information ... that I didn't have time to be nervous about something that was a full month away!

Here we are at one of the rare breaks during the TLC National Meeting. We caught a Cardinals game vs the Brewers. This is just part of your DMV TLC team.

Now, the big debut is just two weeks away! Lots of preparation still needs to be done ... working with Andy to define his surgical preferences, moving into the new office, decorating (I wish Pam were still here so she could help!), and learning more about my new role as Clinical Director. I'm sure there is much more that I haven't even thought of! Even though I'm starting to get butterflies in my stomach ... I'd gladly trade them for something like, oh, a juicy steak ... I'm confident that I will represent my fellow optometrists well as Clinical Director. - jw
