Chadi Alraies, MD, MPH, FSCAI, speaks with Nazli Okumus, MD, a mentee in the SCAI Mentor Connect program and member of the SCAI Women in Innovations (WIN) Committee. Dr. Okumus shares how mentorship played a critical role during her transition from general cardiology to interventional cardiology fellowship, particularly as a woman entering the field. She described the benefits of connecting with mentors who have faced similar challenges, and how virtual conversations evolved into long-term, in-person relationships at professional meetings.
