It was a happy day for @BenjEmer, and his father, Dr. Peter Emer, of @EmerEyecare on Monday. The longtime local optometry practice opened for business at its renovated building at 6300 76th St. zcu.io/wRdN #Kenosha

That was one of the worst mistakes on roughing the passer that I’ve ever seen. The Clay Matthews ones included. Smith went in with shoulder, avoided head contact and didn’t land on top of the QB.

Best resource for #newgrad #optometrist? Your fellow local ODs! Get to know them, be involved, share knowledge, grow lasting relationships
Love the challenge & learning experience & growing Emer Eye Care, but almost makes me jealous of corporate #optometrists! #grind
Toughest thing about #privatepractice as a #newgrad #optometrist? Billing and coding, and practice/staff management, by far!
