MinhTri Nguyen: I Hope That Our Collective Thoughts May Be Helpful to Up-and-Coming, New, or Early Career Oncologists and Hematologist

MinhTri Nguyen, Medical Oncologist and Hematologist at Stanford Health Care, shared Nicholas Hornstein’s post on LinkedIn, adding:

“I hope that our collective thoughts may be helpful to up-and-coming, new, or early career oncologists and hematologists. The pace to which we must keep up the practice of hematology oncology is extremely demanding. We do better in all of these things – including helping each other prepare for boards or to transition to that staff/attending role for the first time, as a community.”

Quoting Nicholas Hornstein’s, Assistant Professor at Northwell Health, original post:

“Had a chance to speak with CancerNetwork alongside Eric Singhi, MinhTri Nguyen, Nerea Lopetegui Lia, and Marc Braunstein about one of the most underdiscussed – and overwhelming – periods in our careers: preparing for the boards while transitioning from fellowship to faculty.
The facts:
  • Studying for two board exams is daunting
  • Becoming ‘the attending’ is surreal
  • Burnout is real—and still under-recognized
Key takeaways from our conversation:
  • Have fun (yes, really)
  • Build consistency, not perfection
  • Find mentors who guide after graduation
  • Take the transition seriously – but not personally
  • You’re not alone
Huge thanks to CancerNetwork for spotlighting this topic. There’s still work to do supporting early-career oncologists, but conversations like this are a start.”

Recently Yan Leyfman, Medical Correspondent at OncLive, shared MinhTri Nguyen’s post on LinkedIn and commented:

“A great read from a group of rising leaders in the field of oncology.”
