Tenet Healthcare Corporation·Ellsworth, Maine
Provide comprehensive ophthalmology services in a high-volume community practice, including performing cataract, YAG, LPI, and SLT surgeries. Manage patient care utilizing advanced diagnostic technology and collaborate with a technical staff and scribe support.
Coastal Eye Care is a 29-year-old, two-physician ophthalmology practice with deep roots in Downeast Maine — and they're ready to welcome a third. You'll step into an established, high-volume clinic with a loyal referral network of local ODs and PCPs, an on-site ASC, and immediate surgical volume from day one. The technology is cutting-edge, the team is experienced, and the call schedule is nonexistent — no hospital call, no ER coverage. This is a rare chance to build a meaningful practice without building from scratch.
Ellsworth sits at the gateway to Acadia National Park, giving you world-class hiking, biking, and coastal scenery within a short drive of your front door. The town itself offers a walkable historic downtown with local restaurants, galleries, and a genuine sense of community that's increasingly rare. Six lakes and the Union River make it a year-round destination for kayaking, fishing, and winter recreation, while the Downeast Sunrise Trail and Woodlawn Museum add cultural and outdoor depth to everyday life. If you're looking for a place where quality of life isn't a talking point but a daily reality, Ellsworth delivers.
Candidates must be Board Certified or Board Eligible in Ophthalmology and hold or be able to obtain an active Maine medical license. All experience levels are welcome, including fellowship-trained subspecialists in Glaucoma or Cornea.
