Osler Ophthalmology Virtual Mock Oral Course April 17-19 and April 25-26, 2026
Enhance your critical reasoning and evaluation skills in an intensive case review course designed to focus on the most clinically relevant aspects of diagnosis, treatment approach, and patient management in all key areas of Ophthalmology. The course begins with a lecture on the critical reasoning and communication skills necessary to succeed in the Oral Certification exam, which will be emphasized through recorded mock oral exams that are available for viewing.
These recorded mock orals cover standard care cases and feature a half-hour format with feedback. Additionally, participant volunteers and some of our top faculty members were recorded in 25-minute virtual simulations of the Oral Board process, followed by faculty critiques. A special “Optic Pearls” lecture will highlight the essential aspects of optics required for both the certification exam and your medical practice.
Course fees include participation in two private virtual mock orals scheduled over the three days of the course. Participants may also purchase additional mock orals if desired; however, availability may be limited close to the start of the course.
Cost: $950
