Your role will involve providing comprehensive eye care to patients of all ages for visual and medical conditions, educating them about their ocular health, and recommending vision-enhancing products, with a typical day consisting of 22 patient slots. You will have access to advanced diagnostic technology, including Optos, optical coherence tomography, and fundus photography, all within a paperless, cloud-based environment that allows for electronic medical records and charting from anywhere, supported by a highly trained staff throughout your examinations. The practice provides a highly competitive benefit package including paid time off, medical insurance, and a relocation stipend.
