Doctor Membership Benefits
The SDOS and AOA are your advocates before state and federal legislators, national providers, Medicare, Medicaid and other professional organizations. Both the SDOS and AOA constantly monitor these groups at the state and federal level to ensure that the interests of you and your patients are protected. Because optometry is a legislated profession, representation in these arenas is by far the most valuable benefit of your membership. You can be a part of optometry's voice by serving on a SDOS committee and being politically active.
