"The value of Management for the Eyecare Practitioner lies not in its useful, but far from comprehensive, detail; rather, the book's great merit is its exemplary attitude towards looking after patients in more than a clinical sense and its balanced outlook on optometrists keeping an eye on their business as well as their clinical skills. One must admire Bennett's supreme confidence that if he provides good service and does the very best by his patients, then the financial rewards will surely follow...
The book is an easy read which I recommend to all optometry students and especially to any optometrist either owning or looking to own his or her own practice, even if just as a refresher. But don't pass it on to the chains!"Clinical & Experimental Optometry
excellent book, with its blend of professionalism and practicality, mirrors the work and character of the author. Dr. Bennett has written a book for which the student, the newly established practitioner, and the experienced doctor will be very grateful, academically and realistically." Ralph Drew, FBCO, FNAO
book can help you to a larger, more efficient, and more satisfying practice." Jack Runninger, OD
