Optometrist - Brownville, Maine

We invite an Optometrist to join a respected rural health center (FQHC) with a 40+ year history of successful operation. This nonprofit organization has practices in six towns providing primary care, urgent care, mental health, dentistry, podiatry, physical therapy, and other healthcare services to thousands of patients across a sizeable stretch of northern Maine.

You will launch a new eyecare service in this established outpatient health center where space is being renovated to add Optometry alongside primary care, mental health, and other services. You will collaborate with primary care providers in a rewarding role seeing adults and families – including many who are uninsured or underinsured. In addition to examining and diagnosing eye issues and impairments, you will prescribe corrective lenses, prescribe therapeutic drugs to treat eye conditions, and conduct occasional emergency treatment for patients. When ramped up, you can expect a moderate volume of 16 patients/day. Enjoy a terrific weekday schedule with no nights, weekends, or holidays. Practice in a modern facility with state-of-the-art technology and excellent support so you can provide the best patient care possible.
