  • Attributes: Exceptional communication skills, a compassionate patient-first bedside manner, and a strong work ethic.
  • Experience: Experience or residency training in ocular disease, surgical co-management, or a multi-specialty group practice is highly valued, but new graduates with strong clinical skills are welcome to apply.
