The Power Hour is a live internet-based talk radio show facilitated by Gary Gerber, OD. The show is a live discussion vehicle for current practice-building events in optometry, and includes political viewpoints and clinical topics. Special guests both in and out of the optometric field are asked to participate.

 “As expected, Angel gave some great information and insight about how private practice docs can compete in the marketplace. It behooves every doctor who wants to improve their practice to download and listen to this episode,” says Dr. Gerber.

The live show brought in over 204 unique listeners interested in hearing Alvarez answer questions about the recent merger with Optical Distributor Group, his thoughts on the future of the industry, tips on handling competition, and how the new health-care reform will impact the industry.

 “I was very excited to be given the opportunity to field questions from the listeners about topics that concern everyone in the optical industry. I’m hoping that my answers showed that ABB CONCISE’s focus is really on building tools that will help eyecare practitioners remain competitive,” says Alvarez. “When they lose a patient, we lose a patient. Our partnership with ECPs is what makes our business.”
