Surgical Support: Assist with minor chair-side procedures and maintaining sterile environments for in-office treatments.
Administration: Assist with essential administrative tasks, including patient inquiries (calls/emails), triage referrals, and booking consults and/or follow-up appointments when necessary.

Experience: Previous experience as an Ophthalmic Technician or in a similar ophthalmology/optometry setting is preferred.
Certification: COA, COT, or COMT certification is considered a significant asset.
Technical Proficiency: Strong command of modern ophthalmic diagnostic equipment and EMR systems.
Communication: Exceptional interpersonal skills with a focus on compassionate, patient-centered care.
Adaptability: A "foundational" mindset—reliable, professional, and eager to contribute ideas to a new clinical environment and work harmoniously with other team members.

Competitive Compensation: Highly competitive hourly wage based on experience and certification.
Modern Workspace: Work in a brand-new, technologically advanced facility designed for optimal patient care.
Professional Growth: Opportunity for long-term career advancement and support for continuing education/certification.
Impact: A collaborative culture where your input directly influences the success of a new community landmark.
