The Young OD Focus Group was created in 2004 by Dr. Benny Shao, and is currently sponsored by the SCCOS in order to address the concerns and needs of new optometry graduates. Many graduates feel that their education has prepared them to be optometrists but not necessarily business owners.
The Young OD Focus Group's mission is to give new optometry graduates the know-how to handle the business challenges presented in different modes of optometry practice by putting them in touch with more experienced doctors & professionals during our monthly meetings.
Dinner & refreshments are always served, so come hungry! We look forward to meeting you.

October 2019 Meeting
Topic: Practice Ownership Join us for an event geared toward doctors that hope to one day start, acquire or buy into an optometry practice. We will talk about important business concept and ideas related to practice ownership. The presentation will be aimed toward the following questions: Is it better to start or acquire a practice? How do my student loans impact my ability to start or acquire a practice? What is cash flow and how does it impact me? How do I create a business plan? What do banks look at when considering a practice loan? Speaker: Jason Greenland, Business Development Manager @ Wells Fargo Jason Greenland is a Business Development Manager for Wells Fargo Practice Finance in the Bay Area. He has been working with doctors to help them successfully start or acquire practices for the past 8 years. He uses his knowledge and experience to help ensure a smooth transition to ownership.
