Customer Reviews
Thanks for restarting!!
I am a practicing ophthalmologist and listened to this throughout residency. So pumped to have episodes coming out again, so that I can be reviewing things:) maybe one day you guys can even add CME for these:)
Concise
I’m a practicing optometrist and listen daily on the way to clinic. Useful reviews on many conditions, especially less common ones, and I enjoy that these are often accompanied by up to date literature reviews and clinical experiences. It’s like an audio Wills Eye Manual, with hilarious hosts. I also enjoy the random guest topics. I recommend this show all the time to colleagues. You guys are helping eye doctors everywhere, please continue a long time. Thank you!
Spectacular Review of Ophthalmology!
Erudite, focused, high information content. The speakers are intelligent, well informed, unpretentious, entertaining and have a good sense of humor. I have practiced Oculoplastic Surgery for over 30 years and am grandfathered out of retaking the boards. I am listening to these because they are fun, interesting and bring back and update hardwired Ophthalmology information from my resident days. A+
