Abstract
Mentorship is vital in the effective progression of a physician's educational training. This journey often begins during a physician's undergraduate career prior to advancing on to medical school, residency, and fellowship training. These levels of training distinguish different tiers of mastery, and collaboration among these tiers is integral in order to facilitate a meaningful transition into an independent physician.
