Dr. C: Good Morning!

We are all working harder and technicians are short staffed. Thank you to those who are working overtime to help. It’s Ophthalmic Tech Week – you are a valuable portion of the team. We will be hiring in January after the end of year crunch.

Welcome to MacKenzie who joined the front office.

Patients want to get in before end of year. Work hard to accommodate and get them in now.

End of year specials – Lasik $800 off ($400 off per eye), Bleph $800 off ($200 off per lid), Optical BOGO50.

Chart flyers – technicians make sure you give to patient, also put on coffee stations and brochure stands.

Keep the office clean, pick up trash/wrappers in pods.
