Fresh out of college, I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. I joined the management program with the goal of becoming an office manager, and within six months, I was leading my own office. That’s when my career truly took off. As I demonstrated my work ethic, Dr. Tavel continued to invest in me. After spending several years as an office manager, I transitioned into the training department, which eventually led to my current role as a recruiter. What keeps me passionate about working at Dr. Tavel is knowing that I’m making a difference every day, and feeling valued by my company motivates me to give my best, day in and day out.” Amanda Employed 8 Years Join a Legacy of Vision and Opportunity at Dr. Tavel For more than eight decades, Dr. Tavel has been more than a trusted name in quality eye care—we’re a place where dedicated individuals grow, learn, and thrive.
