What We’re Looking For

Candidates should meet one of the following experience profiles:

• Completion of an optometric residency, preferably with a medical, ocular disease, or surgical co-management focus; or
• At least four to five years of strong medical optometry experience in an integrated MD/OD practice

Qualified candidates should also have:

• Doctor of Optometry degree from an accredited institution
• Eligibility to obtain and maintain an unrestricted Tennessee optometry license

• Experience collaborating with ophthalmologists in a co-management environment
