ASOA EyeTalks Radio

In an era marked by critical staffing shortages and shrinking margins, eye care administrators can no longer view their EHR simply as digital filing cabinets. In this podcast, ModMed® aims to bridge the gap between clinical reality and operations with renowned vitreoretinal surgeons Dr. Jonathan Feistmann and Dr. Paul Gallogly. Together, they pull back the curtain on how ModMed Scribe—an ophthalmic-specific AI-powered ambient listening tool—is transforming hectic clinics into disciplined, efficient operations. Moving beyond generic transcription talk, this conversation delivers a data-driven roadmap for practice leaders to show how automating documentation natively unlocks untapped capacity, protects revenue, and optimizes staffing layouts.

What had started as a slow painful drought became a torrential downpour of applicants. This shift taught us to be both careful about what we wished for and grateful for answered prayers.

Quiet quitting is not as straightforward as one might think. It's worth considering the real cost: one's physical and mental health. If you go against your natural inclinations to perform your job in a manner that feels positive, you'd be better off working where you are celebrated, not just tolerated. As a leader, though, you must keep your team engaged.

What makes a leader in ophthalmic administration? Do managers make good leaders? And do good leaders make good mentors? Angela, Patti, and Carrie lead the discussion on leadership in this episode.
