Job description

Overview

Northwest Permanente is currently hiring a Board Certified or Board Eligible Ophthalmologist to join our Kaiser Permanente team in Portland, OR. You will join an integrated and compassionate team of physicians and supportive clinical and administrative staff, providing a mix of Pediatric and Comprehensive Ophthalmology. Our Ophthalmologists are part of a truly comprehensive practice, offering the opportunity to work in a connected and comprehensive health care model, with the associated efficiencies. We offer an abundant surgical volume providing care for a full range of ophthalmologic disorders. The amount of subspecialty work will vary based on the needs of our patients and team. Our model is patient-centric, creating seamless and efficient care across specialties. Our practice uses the latest technology to provide advanced care. 

In this role, you will be the primary Pediatric Ophthalmologist so most of your patients will be pediatrics with some adult strabismus and general comprehensive call rotations. You will have an opportunity for a 1/2-day surgery block on Tuesday mornings, if you are interested. This role also required rounding once per week for Retinopathy of Prematurity at the Kaiser Sunnyside Medical Center NICU. You will see a higher acuity of disease while doing routine exams, including all refractions, and partner with our Optometry partners for Pediatric patients.

What You Can Expect:

  • An experienced support staff
  • Access to a physician-friendly advanced Epic EMR
  • 1.00 and 0.9 FTE (full-time schedule preferred)
  • Open to part-time (3 days per week plus NICU rounding required)

Minimum Requirements:

  • Board Certified or Eligible in Ophthalmology
  • Fellowship training in Pediatric Ophthalmology
