About The Opportunity

Comprehensive Mobile Care (CMC) is seeking a Part‑Time Optometrist (OD) to provide care within a structured, outpatient clinic‑based environment across multiple partner locations throughout New Mexico.

This is a clinic‑based role where you'll function as an extension of the clinical team within coordinated, community‑focused settings serving senior populations.

If you're looking for meaningful, mission‑driven work with schedule flexibility and consistency, without the overhead and administrative burden of running your own practice, this opportunity offers professional support and a rewarding patient population.

Service Areas

The ideal provider is willing to travel to the following New Mexico communities:

• Los Alamos
• Grants
• Gallup
• Socorro
• Truth or Consequences
• Bayard / Silver City
• Alamogordo
• Las Cruces

Mileage reimbursement may be available based on travel requirements.

The Setting

This opportunity operates within a community‑based outpatient clinic model.

• Clinic staff are on‑site full time
• Organized scheduling and patient flow
• Coordinated, team‑based care environment

• Diagnose and manage common ocular conditions within your scope of practice
• Prescribe corrective lenses and provide appropriate treatment recommendations
• Collaborate with clinic staff as part of an integrated care team
• Deliver patient‑centered care in a structured outpatient setting

What Makes This Different

Our optometrists are integrated into established clinic environments and represent Comprehensive Mobile Care directly within each partner location.

We emphasize:

• Quality over volume
• Consistency and predictability
• Administrative and logistical support
• Long‑term clinic partnerships
• Ethical, mission‑driven healthcare delivery

Qualifications

• Doctor of Optometry (OD) degree from an accredited program
• Active New Mexico Optometry License
• Willingness to travel throughout assigned New Mexico service areas
