About The Position

Coastal Eye Care is a 29-year-old, two-physician ophthalmology practice seeking a third physician to join their established, high-volume clinic. The practice has a loyal referral network, an on-site Ambulatory Surgery Center (ASC), and immediate surgical volume. The role offers cutting-edge technology, an experienced team, and no hospital or ER call. This is an opportunity to build a meaningful practice within an existing framework. The position highlights include a full-time ophthalmology role within a busy group practice, with an expected 10+ cataract cases per week in the first year and strong growth potential.
