Experienced ophthalmologists and new graduates welcome; experience and interest in eyelid surgery is desirable. Spanish-speaking ability is a plus. Ramp-up of surgical volume is straightforward as we have a strong referring network from over 35 regional optometrists, the managing physician would like to cut back to 60% clinical time, and one of the other ophthalmologists would like to cut back on travel clinics to Roseburg (a highly enriched cataract need area) as well.
