Charles Kim, O.D.

From my heart, I am delighted to recommend Firstsight Vision Services as your next optometric practice. I have been practicing optometry for 33 years and my scope of practice include military optometry, private office, employee position, and medical group with ophthalmologists. Out of all the different optometric modalities, my years with Firstsight stand out as very fulfilling and headache/hassle free, making my life easy. I tribute such experience due to fantastic support from the District Manager and Firstsight corporate leaders. If you decide to work as Firstsight OD, I guarantee you have made the right decision and will not have any regrets. The office will bear your name, and you are in charge from day one. I have had 15+ satisfying years with Firstsight and I firmly believe you will too. I wish you the best. Dr Kim, OD

Subleasing with FirstSight has provided me a platform to do what I love: Connecting with people and helping to improve their quality of life through eye exam service. I appreciate the freedom to set my own pace so that I can control how much time I want to spend with each patient depending on their individual needs. I am grateful for the mentorship and partnership with my district manager at FirstSight because I can receive support and help in running my optometry clinic. There is a sense of ownership that comes with being a sublease optometrist at FirstSight. The fact that it is my business and FirstSight is there to support, There is also a sense of community with other optometrists at FirstSight. Knowing that there are other doctors who can relate to my daily experiences and growth gives me an added sense of comfort and confidence.

Subleasing my practice with FirstSight has given me the opportunity to balance motherhood and my career. The flexibility allows me to open my practice three days each week and still be fully engaged with my two young boys. FirstSight leadership has always been extremely supportive of my practice and this has been exemplified even more during this pandemic.

I appreciate the FirstSight business model because it allows me to concentrate more on primary care optometry and less on practice management. This setting allows me to experience a wide range of patient populations and I have the independence to practice the scope of optometry necessary to meet their needs.

First Sight Vision Services is a great company to work with. I have been with First Sight Vision Services for more than 10 years. They gave me a great opportunity as a New Grad and they have also allowed me to grow with them and as my optometry career moved forward. First Sight Vision has allowed me to schedule patients in a timely matter, so my patients never feel rushed. They have allowed me to control my own staff and payroll options. They have also given me the means to run a successful practice with very low overhead. The best part of working with First Sight Vision Services is that you never feel alone. You can always count on your District Manager and First Sight Vision staff if you have any questions. Moreover, you also have a great community of optometrists who are only one phone call away. Even though we are all independent; we are all here to help each other.

We don’t always think about it, but it is true that the words you choose matter. As a business owner, this is something that you might want to consider exploring and laying out a plan for you and your staff when giving general information such as pricing and for scheduling appointments. Listed below are a few pointers on some of the most frequently used phrases.

INSTEAD OF SAYING: Exams are $xx.xx

TRY SAYING: Our exam prices are only $xx.xx and include xxxx.

People will hear that word “only” and feel that they are getting a good deal and if you let them know what an examination includes they will realize there is more to an examination than just a Rx at the end. Avoid using words like “cheaper”. If you say lower in cost or less expensive it may present a more positive spin on the value of the service at an affordable price.

INSTEAD OF SAYING: When would you like to schedule that appointment?

TRY SAYING: If the patient is in your office, then hopefully you are telling them that they can be seen now. If they are calling in, then let them know you have time today to see them and give them one or two time slots when they can come in. If they really want to schedule in advance, then try to give them a time slot for maybe around the time you are speaking with them. Most people make calls when they have a free moment in the day, so that might be the best time to try to schedule them.
