About the Practice
This is a premium, technology-forward ophthalmology center dedicated to delivering personalized, high-quality vision correction. The practice, with offices in Bloomfield Hills and Rochester Hills, MI, specializes in in-office refractive procedures (LASIK, SMILE, PRK) and cataract surgery with advanced premium lenses. Its fully accredited, on-site surgery suite allows patients to experience state-of-the-art care in a comfortable, convenient environment. Online reviews with our practice are exceptional because we treat every patient as if they are a member of our own family.
The lead surgeon is a board-certified ophthalmologist with 20+ years of experience and a reputation for exceptional surgical outcomes and patient satisfaction. With more than 10,000 lifetime cataract surgeries, he has built a thriving, high-end practice and is now seeking a new ophthalmologist to join the team and help meet growing patient demand.
Role Overview
As the new ophthalmologist, you will:
- Perform office-based cataract and refractive surgery, including advanced premium IOLs, EVO ICL and laser procedures (LASIK, SMILE, PRK).
- Enjoy working in a streamlined organization with full support.
- Step into a busy, well-established surgical pipeline, currently managing approximately 1,000 surgical eyes per year with the capacity to double that volume.
- Receive strong mentorship and case transfer from the senior surgeon.
- Work within a premium practice model.
- Our OD-supported clinic allows the incoming surgeon to focus on surgery consults, surgeries, and postoperative care.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
- Mentorship & growth: Learn directly from a highly respected surgeon and former faculty member at a major academic center.
- Premium model: Practice in an environment that emphasizes high-quality outcomes, patient satisfaction, and a high percentage of upgrades.
- Modern, efficient surgical center: Benefit from a fully equipped in-office surgery suite with experienced support staff and seamless patient flow.
- Scalable volume: The infrastructure and patient demand already exist for rapid surgical growth.
- We are adding an additional site in Bloomfield Hills, which is a very nice area.
- Open to new or experienced surgeons: This opportunity fits a newly trained ophthalmologist eager to learn or an experienced professional ready to thrive in a sophisticated private practice.
- State-of-the-art office and OBS: Fully equipped with advanced diagnostics and surgical technology, including iTrace, IOLMaster 700, Zeiss Cirrus 5000, Optos Daytona, Pentacam AXL Wave, Alcon Centurion Phaco, Zeiss Lumera 700 microscope, Zeiss VisuMax 800, and Alcon EX500 excimer laser.
- OBS is Quad A accredited.
- This affluent Detroit suburb area is expected to lose several surgeons due to retirement in the near future.
Ideal Candidate Profile
- MD or DO, board-certified or board-eligible in Ophthalmology.
- Strong interest or experience in refractive and cataract surgery, with enthusiasm for premium lenses and patient education.
- Excellent surgical technique and clinical judgment.
- Exceptional communication skills and emotional intelligence.
- A team-oriented, patient-first mindset and desire to grow within a private, premium model.
Compensation & Benefits
- Base compensation: Excellent earning opportunity, including incentives, with clear pathways for growth based on surgical ramp-up.
- Sign On Bonus and Relocation
- Health insurance (80% of premium covered by practice), malpractice insurance, 4 weeks PTO, 1 week CME, 1 week sick leave, 401(k) after 12 months with 3% employer contribution, and profit sharing.
- Volume potential: The current and future surgical pipeline provides significant income upside as volume increases.
- The prospective surgeon will be offered a full suite of comprehensive benefits.
