Our rapidly growing MD/OD group practice currently includes five optometrist and one MD. With two locations within 45 minutes of each other, we are looking for one or two full-time MDs, and subspecialists are highly encouraged to apply.

For over 60 years, Kearney Eye Institute has maintained a loyal patient base and strong optometric referral network. Our clinic is fully staffed with certified ophthalmic technicians and state-of-the-art equipment. We have an on-site ASC and optical shop. Each physician is supported by one or two work-ups and scribes, depending on volume, to assist with charting, minor procedures, ordering/patient follow-up, and more. Our team includes three well-trained surgical coordinators and a fully staffed nursing unit. We promote mutual respect and cooperation, working together to provide outstanding eye care services.
