About the role

Provide ophthalmic and optometric patient care in nursing homes and assisted living facilities under the supervision of an ophthalmologist. Perform and assist with various ophthalmological procedures including biopsies, eyelid surgeries, and tear duct plug insertions.

Benefits

Bonus based on performance Competitive salary Flexible schedule Help or transport service We are Advanced Surgical Mobile Eye Care and are seeking a part-time Physician Assistant specializing in the 3 Os (Optical, Optometry and Ophthalmology). We are a successful, 27-year-old company practicing the 3 Os by traveling to local nursing homes in these areas of Florida: Daytona, Jacksonville, St. Petersburg, Tampa, Lakeland, Orlando, and Sarasota. We are seeking a Physician Assistant for the Gainesville, Jacksonville, and St. Augustine areas.

This is the perfect opportunity for someone interested in practicing ocular and vision care in nursing homes and assisted living facilities.

  • Imagine you can practice the 3 Os (Optical, Optometry and Ophthalmology) for patients who truly need eye care and who cannot advocate for themselves.
  • This group of patients often gradually lose their eyesight and/or have eye infections unnoticed by staff or poorly treated by their nurses.
  • They have a high rate of glaucoma, macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, blepharitis, and a plethora of other eye diseases.
  • These patients often greet you with a big smile when their eyeglasses are dispensed.
  • We are equipped with portable OCT, fundus camera, B-scan, and visual fields to diagnose and monitor eye diseases.

If you are compassionate and love ocular pathology, you would be a perfect match for this mode of practice compared to conventional practices.
