Optometrist - Part-time

The Vancouver Clinic
Ridgefield, NJ Part Time
POSTED ON 4/9/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 6/8/2026

At Vancouver Clinic, caring for people is our first priority and the driving force behind everything we do. New clinicians will find a collegial, supportive, and caring environment of healthcare professionals committed to our patients and community. Our multispecialty clinic is physician owned, which prioritizes the highest quality patient care and a strong work-life balance.

We are eager and ready to hire another optometrist to join our growing practice. The new clinician will join the largest group of eyecare providers in Southwest Washington. Our Ophthalmology Department consists of four optometrists and six ophthalmologists. We have a part-time retina specialist and full-time specialists in glaucoma, pediatrics and oculoplastics.

This position is a part-time position which will involve primarily seeing patients in our Heron Gate (Ridgefield) office with some time at our Camas office. This position affords the opportunity to have a great work/life balance with amazing colleagues and no weekend hours or call responsibilities.

The ideal candidate is an outgoing, hardworking, patient-oriented, team player who is enthusiastic about practicing evidence-based medicine in a collegial, cohesive group of MDs and ODs. Applicants’ qualifications must include an O.D. Degree from an accredited institution and eligibility for licensure in Washington State. Preference will be given to candidates with 3 years of experience and/or residency training.

  • The department spans three locations, including two full‑spectrum ophthalmology clinics and one boutique‑style, optometry‑only vision clinic. Each site includes a full‑service optical shop, supporting comprehensive, patient‑centered eye care.
  • Clinicians are supported by a highly experienced care team, including clinic assistants, ophthalmic testing staff, ophthalmic technicians, a dedicated contact lens technician, and opticians—allowing clinicians to focus on high‑quality, efficient patient care.
  • Established referral network with excellent collaboration between primary care and specialty care.

We are rooted in Southwest Washington, located in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. The area offers a variety of housing options from suburban neighborhoods, downtown high rises, or rural locations with acreage. We enjoy year-round recreational opportunities, a flourishing craft brewery scene, wineries, and tasty restaurants. Portland, Oregon, is nearby offering world-class food, a vibrant art and theater scene, and numerous professional sports teams . Plus, if you live and work in Washington, there is no state income tax.

We recognize that each person’s unique experience, identity, and perspective advances our ability to deliver the best possible care to our patients. We encourage candidates of every background to apply to join our team.

Please submit a CV and cover letter detailing your interest in our organization and position.
