Rochester Hills, MI (Detroit Suburb) — High-Volume Refractive/Cataract Surgeon | Private Practice.

High-Volume Refractive/Cataract Surgeon | Private Practice in Upscale Suburb of Detroit.

A practice built around the standard you hold yourself to.

There is a certain kind of surgeon who isn’t satisfied with good enough. Who believes great outcomes are the product of relentless standards, meticulous preparation, and a refusal to settle- A surgeon who takes quiet pride in the precision of their craft — and in what that precision means to the people sitting across from them.
Our private practice was built for that surgeon. We are a surgery-focused, premium vision correction practice with a singular ambition: to be the most trusted destination for premium vision correction — recognized for consistently superior outcomes, an unmatched patient experience, and a standard of care that redefines what patients expect from elective eye surgery. We’re building that standard every day, and we’re looking for a cataract and refractive surgeon who wants to build it with us.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

▪ Surgery-focused practice — your schedule is built around surgical consultations, procedures, and postoperative care
▪ Active surgical caseload of 500–1,000 cases annually — meaningful volume in a practice that values every outcome
▪ Limited routine or comprehensive ophthalmology — every patient interaction is purposeful and surgical in nature
▪ Premium Office-based Surgery Center — a dedicated, state-of-the-art surgical environment on-site
▪ Established, growing practice with a premium patient base and a collaborative clinical team
▪ Compensation starting at $350,000/year + profit sharing program

Who You Are

▪ Board-certified or board-eligible ophthalmologist with fellowship training in cataract and refractive surgery (or equivalent high-volume experience)
▪ Proven track record of excellent surgical outcomes and patient satisfaction
▪ Committed to precision — you understand that small things are not small
▪ Strong communicator who earns trust with patients and teammates alike
▪ Ready to take ownership — you step forward, take responsibility, and stand behind your work
▪ Hungry to grow alongside a practice that refuses to stand still

Compensation & Benefits

▪ Base salary starting at $350,000/year, commensurate with experience
▪ Profit sharing program — structured participation in practice growth and performance
▪ Production incentives
▪ Full benefits package (health, dental, vision)
▪ Paid time off and CME allowance
▪ Malpractice coverage provided
▪ Relocation assistance considered for qualified candidates

Why Join Us?

We are not a revolving door. Every case on your schedule exists because a patient chooses us for one of the most important decisions of their life — and every case deserves the full weight of your attention and expertise. Our Premium Office-based Surgery Center, advanced technology, and experienced clinical team are here to support exactly that.
If you are a surgeon who believes great outcomes are not accidents — that they are the product of relentless standards and an unwavering refusal to settle — you belong here.
Every person who walks through our doors carries a story. We take that seriously. Our work isn’t just vision correction — it’s giving people back the moments that matter most.
