During his interview process prior to being selected as the current President of the New England College of Optometry, Dr. Howard Purcell was referred to as a round peg trying to fit into a square hole.
And since being selected for this position, Dr. Purcell has lived up to this description. Bringing his immense wealth of knowledge from his experience working within two of the largest corporations in the eye care industry, Dr. Purcell is working to prepare optometry students for the disruption and evolution our industry will be navigating in the coming years.
During our discussion, I had the opportunity to ask Dr. Purcell a variety of questions including thoughts about some of Essilor's previous mergers and acquisitions, recent regulatory changes in the industry, and where he sees the eye care industry going in the future. I hope you learn from and enjoy this episode as much as I did!
