“I had no idea about the Best Practices™ or this Summit, and it is hands down one of the best experiences that I’ve ever had in the 17 years of my optometric career.”
Dr. Megan Lott
Belle Vue Specialty Eye Care
“The Summit has been really amazing to have the opportunity to listen to our guest speaker who really taught us how to do storytelling and share our message through our practice. It was extremely valuable.”
Dr. Kelly Scherer
The Chicago Lighthouse
“I was not expecting to have this much fun, and I was not expecting to learn this much from this conference. It’s been amazing to get together with these other practices and talk and share and I’ve just really enjoyed it and I thank CooperVision tremendously for letting us be here.”
