“My role as a VSP Ambassador is to be a conduit of VSP knowledge to network doctors and back to VSP with questions and opinions from my peers. In this role, I like being the first to know about enhancements to VSP plans that affect practices and patients. After new information is delivered, I like having direct contact with VSP staff to get member doctors questions answered and pass on their favorable or unfavorable opinions. I've enjoyed collaborating with Ambassadors from all 50 states, with VSP staff and network doctors so much so that I have continued in this role for over 35 years.”

"As an ambassador, I have been most honored to come in contact with some really impressive ODs and industry leaders across the nation. This role has allowed me invaluable interaction with brilliant minds in Optometry that I would not have otherwise obtained, especially secluded in my own practice. Optometry attracts the most giving, kind-hearted, and servant-driven people to its profession. My role as an ambassador has reminded me why I'm incredibly proud to call myself an Optometric Physician!"
 

“As a VSP Ambassador I am able to share information from colleagues in my state directly to VSP.  I also provide VSP with guidance that shapes programs and resources that help doctors find success as network providers.”
