Founded by Dr. Goldberg in 1979, this practice has built its reputation on trusted relationships, personalized care, and exceptional service. Dr. Goldberg also owns A Brighter Image, a second practice in Washington, D.C. opened in 1983, creating a unique opportunity for the right Optometrist to provide meaningful care today while exploring the long-term potential to own and manage one or both practices, potentially below market value. Why join us? Founded by Dr. Goldberg in Alexandria, Virginia in 1979, this established practice is built on a strong commitment to providing the best customer service possible and ensuring every patient leaves the office pleased. With a loyal patient base, a growing opportunity in medical optometry, and a dedicated team of six employees, including highly experienced professionals who have been with the practice for more than 35 years, this is an excellent opportunity for an dedicated Optometrist who wants to provide meaningful patient care today while exploring future ownership.

The practice is equipped with a Marco digital phoropter, retinal camera, and Revolution practice management software, giving you the tools to deliver efficient, high‑quality care while working alongside an experienced support team. For the right candidate, this role also offers the opportunity to grow into practice ownership and management.

Who you are:

You're a licensed Virginia Optometrist who is passionate about providing exceptional eye care and building lasting patient relationships.
