FRANKLIN LAKES, N.J.—It will be “open mic night” on this week’s June 5 edition of “The Power Hour,” where regular listeners from the U.S. and around the world can call in and share comments. The weekly online radio talk show hosted by Gary Gerber, OD, founder of The Power Practice, a practice management company.

Stated Gerber, “We're changing up the format a bit for this one show to give our loyal listeners a chance to air their views on what's hot in eyecare, practice building challenges or anything else they'd like to discuss. Make sure to take advantage of this open forum. We won't have a special guest on the show since that guest will be our listeners and their comments.”
