Now in its Second Edition, Simple: The Inner Game of Ophthalmic Practice Success makes even the most complex issues in ophthalmic practice management just that- simple. This handy guide covers everything from the basics of business planning to esoteric and complex topics unique to ophthalmology.

Author John B. Pinto, a world-renowned expert on the business of ophthalmic practice, has brought his decades of expertise to bear in this high-yield handbook.
