EyeCare Business Canada Launches NextGEN OD Podcast

Future Focus Podcast is exclusively sponsored by Eye Recommend. 

EyeCare Business Canada, a division of VuePoint IDS, is excited to announce the upcoming launch of Future Focus: The NextGEN OD Canada Podcast, a new podcast series designed specifically for young Optometrists and Canadian Optometry students, studying in Canada and abroad.

The podcast, set to debut later in September 2024, will be hosted by two highly respected young voices in Canadian Optometry, Drs. Amrit Bilkhu and Alexa Hecht.

Drs. Alexa Hecht and Amrit Bilkhu

This podcast series will delve into a wide range of topics that matter most to optometry students, including career paths, job opportunities, board exam preparation, and other timely subjects based on insights from a recent survey of Canadian Optometry students.

With monthly episodes, the NextGEN OD Canada Podcast will feature guest experts and thought leaders who will share valuable advice and experiences relevant to the next generation of Canadian optometrists.

“We’re thrilled to provide a dedicated space for optometry students to explore their future career opportunities and gain practical insights. Our goal is to support students as they navigate the path from their studies to becoming successful optometrists.”

Dr. Amrit Bilkhu, co-host, NextGEN OD Canada Podcast

Co-host Dr. Alexa Hecht echoed the sentiment: “We want to ensure that every student has access to information that helps them thrive, from board exam preparation to finding the right career fit. We’re excited to connect students with the resources they need.”

The 2024 NextGEN OD Canada Podcast series is exclusively sponsored by Eye Recommend, a leading network of independent optometry clinics across Canada.
