Hopefully, the end of 2009 will put the great recession to rest.

The year ended on a high note for the US economy, with the fourth quarter up 5.7%.  That is the most growth in six years.

But, unemployment remains high at around 10% and analysts worry — they always do — that the recovery may not be sustainable.

I am anxious to hear how January started for your practice. And, what your outlook is for the rest of 2010.

As always, I remain optimistic about the US economy in general and the eyecare profession in particular.

Click here to respond to our ‘60 Second Survey’. Your answers will be completely anonymous. Results will be published next week.

Regards,
Jerry Hayes, OD
