20/20 Money Episode #314- Embezzlement In Optometry Practices: How it Happens, Who’s Likely To Do It, and Ways In Which You Can Prevent It From Happening w/ Dr. Bethany Fishbein, OD
November 11, 2024
Welcome to this episode of 20/20 Money!
My guest on today’s show is Dr. Bethany Fishbein, OD, consultant and executive coach with Leaders of Vision. Bethany has been on the show many times in the past and today she joins us to talk about a topic that is admittedly harder and more distressing to talk about: embezzlement in optometry practices. In Bethany’s experience as a consultant having worked with many practices over the years, she’s unfortunately been privy to instances where embezzlement was happening. We talk about who’s likely to do it, what they’re likely to do, and small ways you can cross check the systems in your practice to ensure that you’re running a tight business.
