Yes, we have good teachers. But, mentorship is different from teaching. The primary role of a medical teacher is to convey knowledge to develop clinical and diagnostic competency during training. In contrast, mentoring takes on developing a professional relationship that focuses on achieving specific objectives.
Objectives are based on the mentees specific needs and career goals, and the mentors own experience.

Money and job titles are NOT granted to mentors. Thus, mentors that give out of their time to provide guidance to future doctors are highly thanked and appreciated. Mentioned in the article "Mentorship in radiology", written by Danielle E., et al. "Altruism is an important attribute of a mentor. Being altruistic requires that the mentor understand and priorities the best interest of the mentee, without interposing his or her own standards. Also, honesty, reliability/trustworthiness, and being an active listener are crucial elements of an effective mentor."
