If you’re committed to a career in compassionate, personalized eye care and are looking for a long-term opportunity with room to grow, this role offers the chance to join a trusted practice just as its associate doctor of 29 years prepares to retire at the end of summer 2026, with onboarding expected to begin in July or August 2026.**Why join us?**Westside Optometry, a long-standing and trusted practice in Petaluma, has been serving the community with professional, personalized vision care since Dr. Karen Griffith purchased the practice in 1989, with roots that may make it one of the oldest optometry practices in the area. Known for seeing generations of patients and voted Best of Petaluma and Petaluma’s People’s Choice for the past six years, including 2026, the practice is proud to offer comprehensive general optometry services along with medical eye care and dry eye treatment, with plans to expand into myopia management. With a strong commitment to continuing exceptional patient care, this opportunity is ideal for an optometrist who values mentorship, partnership potential, and the chance to eventually take over a well-established, patient-centered practice over the next 5 to 10 years.**What you'll do:**As a part-time optometrist, you’ll deliver comprehensive eye exams and personalized care for a diverse patient base in a well-equipped, high-tech practice. You’ll diagnose and treat eye conditions, prescribe corrective lenses and treatment plans, provide pre- and post-operative care, and educate patients on long-term eye health. With access to digital refracting lanes, anterior and posterior segment photography, topography, HARK, OCT, and virtual visual fields, you’ll have the tools to provide quality care efficiently. Full exams are typically scheduled every 30 minutes, with contact lens checks and follow-ups worked into the day, resulting in about 10 to 12 exams and 14 to 16 total patients daily. This part-time, on-site role currently supports 1.5 days per week, with flexibility to grow to 2 days or more.**Who you are:**You’re a patient-focused optometrist with a Doctor of Optometry degree from an accredited school, therapeutic certification, and licensure to practice in California. You bring strong clinical skills in comprehensive eye exams, diagnostic testing, treatment planning, and prescribing corrective lenses, along with the communication skills to clearly explain findings and care recommendations. Detail-oriented, collaborative, and committed to continuous learning, you thrive in a team setting and are excited to help the practice deliver exceptional care while continuing to grow its reputation in the community. Experience in a clinical or retail optometry setting is a plus.**Why you'll love Petaluma:** Petaluma offers the perfect blend of small-town charm and Northern California convenience. Located in southern Sonoma County along the Petaluma River, the city is known for its walkable historic downtown, beautifully preserved architecture, local boutiques, acclaimed restaurants, and vibrant farm-to-table food scene. Outdoor enthusiasts can enjoy nearby parks, trails, and easy access to the Sonoma Coast, while wine country experiences, breweries, and weekend getaways are all close at hand. With San Francisco just a short drive away, Petaluma is an ideal place to build a career and enjoy a well-rounded lifestyle.**Minimum Qualifications:*** Optometry license in the state of California**Preferred Specialties:*** Dry Eye, Myopia management, and Scleral contact lenses**Interested applicants can send a Curriculum Vitae, a copy of their CA Optometry License, and a brief cover letter describing their interest and availability directly to: [e-mail]!**
