Background: Mentorship is a key component in preventing burnout and attrition in surgical training, yet many residencies lack a formal program, one method used to establish successful mentor relationships. We aimed to measure the difference in resident perceptions and experience after the implementation of a mentorship program.
Methods: An anonymous survey was distributed to all general surgery residents at a single academic institution before and after implementation of a year-long mentorship program that involved assigned mentors, two social events, and recommended mentorship meetings.
