Oh boy, I was reprimanded by Ms. Judy. Give me a break. I've been here since 2001 and bite my lip time after time when the likes of Chip and now Harry and others bashed ODs in every other post. No...

Oh boy, I was reprimanded by Ms. Judy. Give me a break. I've been here since 2001 and bite my lip time after time when the likes of Chip and now Harry and others bashed ODs in every other post. No...
There is no surgery included in that bill that I can see. Just sounding false claims repeated over and over until they sound true. And there is nothing included that ODs have not been doing for many...
Big difference. ODs don't go on websites and constantly bash OMDs. Just doesn't happen like it does here...............CONSTANTLY.
We mind our own business and only seek to be able to do the...
Whatever you say. But do tell us Harry, you seem to like adding initials behind your name. Why not just go to OD school? It's only 4 years. You'll make $140,000/yr. You already illegally lurk on OD...
Okay, how about 'instigator'. There is a long history. If the shoe fits............
For anyone who feels the need to constantly bash optometry, buck up and apply. After all, any idiot can be an...
Harry, your such a loser. Get a life man.
After, I don't know, 6 years here and countless optometry attacks (lost count but used to point them all out....Chip has mellowed a little :) ), I get tired of pointing out incorrect statements all...
Here, once again, to correct the incorrect and misguided. If you are indeed in MN:
After speaking with a few MN ODs, the above post is totally wrong. ODs in MN can, as in every other state, Rx...
No. No. No. No. No.
Completely wrong. Many years ago, Medicare would deduct the refraction from the exam fee. At least 7 years ago, they determined it was optional. You may report it or not.
For someone claiming expert status you seem to have no idea what you are talking about.
Straight from the (Cigna) Medicare website (and based on 13 years of MCR billing experience):
"A...
Harry, you are admittedly a cheat and a fraud. How can anyone take anything you say seriously when you have admitted to breaking into a private website and then quoting people without their...
This was the question:
"hi all,
What's the best way to check VA when your patient still has a lot of residual and ointment while txing a corneal abrasion?"
That's about like asking, "what is...
Ahhhhh.......here we go.
Note nowhere did I say that this optometrist should not ask a question to an optician. Never said it.
The OD did not appear to be asking a question about how to...
It was just a very silly question to me. Kind of elementary. That's all. I apologize.
And thanks for the kind words Cassandra. I'm not as militant against commercial ODs any more. I've mellowed...
Yes. Probably more a fault of the OD schools than the doc. Too many schools and students and not enough patients for proper training. And it's only going to get worse with 4-5 more schools opening...
Sure........but we know how ODs are treated here. It's an optician site and there nothing wrong with that. ODs and OMDs have their own sites too.
So he goes to an optician website to ask a question???
It sounds as if this doc did not get proper training. I had seen 20+ such cases (externships) before I ever got out of school and felt very...
Am I the only one that is totally baffeled that a supposed doctor of optometry is asking such an elementary question? This is learned in the 3rd year of optometry school if not earlier.
If a...
Capture rate. Sounds like something I should be trying to evade and escape :)
Me? About 30%.
Low? Well, I give everyone their spec Rx immediately after the exam (printed out by EMR). They are...
OD or cop? That's quite a range. I've been an OD for 8 years and was an Military Police/security type in my younger days. My brother is a local cop. Your a young man with plenty of time on your...
Not me. I think anyone should be able to hire anyone else as long as it's mutually agreeable. Should be totally up to the individuals.
So perhaps your posts should be addressed to the leadership...
DING. DING. DING.
The doctor bashing post from Anderson for January---like clockwork:
DING. DING. DING. THIS IS YOUR MONHTLY UNNECESSARY OPTOMETRIST BASHING ON OPTIBOARD. THIS MESSAGE (AS USUAL) WAS BROUGHT TO YOU BY THE HIGHLY UNINFORMED MR. ANDERSON.
SCOgrad, you are doing the...
Incorrect again Mr. Anderson. Don't you ever get tired of being wrong?
Many states allow ODs to have DEA numbers. And many states (including NC) allows Rxing narcotics. It's rarely needed in...
And this is the routine monthly doctor bashing post from the very insecure Mr. Anderson. Like I said, I leave for a month, come back and am guaranteed to see at least one bashing post on optiboard....
