In this episode of the Aaron Werner Podcast, Dr. Aaron Werner is joined by Dr. Carl Urbanski and Dr. Andy Morgenstern—two key leaders behind the AOA’s Evidence-Based Optometry Committee. Together, they pull back the curtain on the Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPGs) that shape how optometrists diagnose and manage disease. What You’ll Learn: • What the AOA Clinical Practice Guidelines really are—and why they matter • The 14-step, evidence-first process behind each guideline • How to use CPGs in real-world clinical settings to improve patient care • Why prevalence data should change how you see your schedule • The difference between “great pickups” and just doing your job well • Why CPGs are NOT influenced by industry or billing priorities—only evidence • How students, staff, and even patients can benefit from engaging with guidelines To access the AOA Clinical Practice Guidelines (Free Access) CLICK HERE (https://www.aoa.org/practice/clinical-guidelines/clinical-practice-guidelines?sso=y) Whether you’re in private practice, academia, or a hospital system, this episode is packed with insights on how to be a better doctor, not just a busier one.
