2012 WOA Spring Seminar

Tired of the cold winter weather? Does even the mention of "spring" lift your spirits? WOA's first annual event of the calendar year brings excellent CE, great amenities, and hopefully, some milder weather. Join us for the 2012 WOA Spring Seminar on April 11-12, which will be held at the Country Springs Hotel in Waukesha, WI.

New Year, New WOA President, New Resolutions

Happy New Year!

I would like to start by thanking Dr. Lisa Slaby for her dedication and great insight in leading the WOA in 2011.  Working with Dr. Slaby and the rest of the WOA board is and will continue to be a very productive and satisfying experience for me, especially as I work to fulfill my responsibilities as your 2012 President.  The doctors I work with on the WOA board are a dedicated group of volunteers, YES, volunteers. 

January is National Glaucoma Awareness Month - Protect Your Sight!

Impacting over an estimated 4 million Americans, Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness in the United States. See your optometrist for a comprehensive dilated eye exam to protect your vision and eye health!

Dr. Slaby's Farewell Address

Throughout my tenure on the WOA Board, I have heard each Past President say “I can’t believe how fast my year as President has gone,” and this is certainly true.  Wisconsin is a great state to practice optometry, and we can only continue to move forward with the help of all of our doctors. 

November is National Diabetes Awareness Month!

November is recognized by WOA as National Diabetes Awareness Month.  Diabetes is a condition that each of us deals with on a daily basis in our practices and even in our personal lives.  Coinciding with this, the WOA is continuing to grow in our public awareness efforts.

2011 Wisconsin Optometric Association Convention, and Moving Forward

As the WOA leadership, members, and staff settle down from the whirlwind of our Annual Convention and Business Meeting, I would like to thank all attendees for supporting the WOA and for making our 2011 event a great success. Traveling and parking may have been a bit difficult for those coming and going, but for the most part, the activities surrounding the location during Oktoberfest were an added bonus.
