OPTOMETRIST Career

Northern Westchester, New York

Hudson Ophthalmology & Aesthetics — Cortlandt Manor

Full Time or Part Time • Immediate Opening

We are seeking a licensed optometrist to join an established, physician owned ophthalmology practice in northern Westchester. We remain one of the few private practices in the region that has not been acquired by a corporate or private equity group, and we continue to practice medicine the way it was intended.

Avoid the impersonal, bureaucratic environment that has overtaken so much of medicine. Practice in the community, alongside the people you care for.

THE ROLE

• Comprehensive eye examinations and refractions

• Contact lens fittings

• Medical optometry within a glaucoma and cataract surgical practice

• Pre and post operative care

• Urgent visits and routine follow up

There is also the opportunity to develop a dry eye service. We have IPL, amniotic membrane and an established patient base in place. For the right candidate, this is a clinical program to build and lead rather than one to inherit.

OUR PRACTICE PHILOSOPHY

The practice is led by Dr. Kerline Marcelin, a board certified ophthalmologist and fellowship trained glaucoma specialist who has served as Clinical Assistant Professor at the New York Eye and Ear Infirmary for over 26 years. She is a Castle Connolly Top Doctor and an Exceptional Women in Medicine honoree.

This is a small, collegial practice with a broad clinical mix, including meaningful exposure to glaucoma and surgical care for those interested. Responsibilities will be shaped around your experience and interests.

COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS

• $170,000 to $180,000 annually, prorated for part time, plus production incentives

• Health insurance

• Vision benefits

• 401(k) with employer match

• Professional liability insurance provided

• 22 days paid time off, including 7 major holidays, prorated for part time

SCHEDULE

Part time: Monday, Wednesday and Friday, with one evening per week until 6:30 PM and one Saturday morning per month.

THE PRACTICE

Our 3,500 square foot facility includes six fully equipped examination rooms with OCT, fundus photography, Humphrey visual field, corneal topography, IOL Master, autorefractor, lensometer, keratometer, YAG and SLT lasers, IPL and amniotic membrane.

The practice has served Cortlandt Manor, Yorktown, Peekskill, Ossining and the greater Hudson Valley for over 20 years and maintains more than 200 five star patient reviews. We are located approximately one hour north of Manhattan, a reverse commute from the city.
