Position Type: Full-Time

Schedule: 4-Day Workweek (5-Day Option Available)

Compensation: $195,000 OTE

Benefits: Medical Insurance

Build a Career and Lifestyle You'll Love:

What if your optometry career could be paired with a lifestyle most people only experience on vacation?

Imagine finishing your last patient on Thursday afternoon and spending your three-day weekend mountain biking through scenic forest trails, kayaking the South Yuba River, skiing at Lake Tahoe, hiking the Sierra foothills, rock climbing, or enjoying quality time with your family in one of Northern California's most welcoming communities.

At Chan Family Optometry, we're offering more than just a job. We're offering an opportunity to build a rewarding career while enjoying an exceptional quality of life.

If you're an optometrist who values patient-centered care, professional autonomy, outdoor adventure, family, and work-life balance, this may be exactly the opportunity you've been searching for.

Why Grass Valley & Nevada County?

Nestled in the beautiful Sierra Nevada foothills, Grass Valley and neighboring Nevada City offer a unique blend of outdoor recreation, excellent schools, historic charm, and small-town community—all while remaining conveniently close to major California destinations.

Outdoor Recreation Without Limits! Nevada County is a destination for outdoor enthusiasts from across the country.

  • Access to the breathtaking South Yuba River
  • World-class skiing and snowboarding at Lake Tahoe approximately one hour away
  • Camping, rafting, rock climbing, and year-round recreation
  • Four distinct seasons and abundant sunshine

Whether you prefer challenging mountain bike trails, powder days on the slopes, peaceful hikes, or weekends on the water, you'll never run out of adventures.


An Incredible Place to Raise a Family! Many healthcare professionals relocate to Nevada County specifically because of its family-friendly lifestyle.
Benefits include:

  • Highly regarded public and private school options
  • Strong community involvement
  • Youth sports and recreation programs
  • Safe neighborhoods
  • Family-oriented events and festivals throughout the year
  • A welcoming, close-knit community where neighbors still know one another

Historic Charm Meets Modern Living! Grass Valley and neighboring Nevada City offer a vibrant blend of history, culture, and modern amenities.
Enjoy:

  • Beautiful historic downtown districts
  • Exceptional local restaurants, wineries, breweries, and coffee shops
  • Art galleries, theaters, and live music venues
  • Farmers markets and community events
  • A thriving arts and cultural scene

Close to Everything, Far From Stress! You'll enjoy convenient access to some of California's most desirable destinations.

  • Approximately 1 hour to Sacramento
  • Approximately 1 hour to Lake Tahoe
  • Approximately 2.5 hours to San Francisco
  • Easy access to wine country, lakes, mountains, and the California coast

Many professionals find they can enjoy a significantly higher quality of life while avoiding the congestion, pace, and costs associated with larger metropolitan areas.
