Job description

Are you ready for a career that blends advanced surgical care, meaningful community impact, and the breathtaking beauty of Alaska? Join Tanana Chiefs Conference (TCC) and make a difference serving Alaska Native and American Indian communities at the Chief Andrew Isaac Health Center and Ambulatory Surgery Center.


Why This Role Stands Out
  • Practice full-scope ophthalmology – from diagnostics to advanced surgery
  • Work in a collaborative, mission-driven environment
  • Experience the unique culture and natural beauty of Interior Alaska
  • No required on-call schedule
  • Make a direct impact in underserved communities

What You’ll Do

As our Ophthalmologist, you will:

  • Perform comprehensive eye exams and diagnose ocular conditions
  • Deliver preventative, therapeutic, and surgical care
  • Conduct procedures including:
    • Cataract and glaucoma surgeries
    • Refractive and corneal procedures
    • Vitreo-retinal and oculoplastic surgeries
    • Laser treatments
  • Provide post-operative care and patient education
  • Collaborate with Optometry and multidisciplinary teams
  • Lead outreach village field clinics and support community care initiatives
  • Contribute to quality improvement, reporting, and clinical excellence

Where You’ll Work
  • Chief Andrew Isaac Health Center (CAIHC)
  • TCC Ambulatory Surgery Center (ASC)
  • Occasional travel to rural village clinics

What You Bring
  • MD or DO from an accredited program
  • Completion of Ophthalmology residency
  • Board Certified or Board Eligible (ABO)
  • Eligible for Alaska medical licensure
  • Strong clinical, surgical, and decision-making skills
  • Passion for culturally responsive, patient-centered care

Bonus Points
  • 2+ years of experience (new grads welcome)
  • Leadership interest (Section Lead opportunity available)
  • Commitment to teamwork, compassion, and community service

Our Mission & Culture

At TCC, we follow the Ch’eghwtsen’ model of care—delivering service with respect, trust, compassion, and empathy. You’ll be part of a team that values collaboration, cultural sensitivity, and making a lasting difference.
