There might seem to be a traditional antagonism between MDs and other credentialed practitioners who do some of the same things, such as optometrists. At the hospital or large group level, it is no longer a philosophical issue, however, but purely financial. As these providers co-exist in the health care marketplace, you have to present yourself as being open-minded.

"I see myself partnering with such practitioners so that I can practice more exclusively within my interests in ophthalmology. In fact, I may even have an optometrist in my office as part of my team. However, legitimacy of the health disciplines is not my job. That is left to authorizing and credentialing authorities. If such providers are so entitled to practice, this is not a conflict for me."
