Description

Anterior Segment Surgeon

Residency or cornea fellowship-trained anterior segment ophthalmologist

The Eye Care Institute | Butchertown Clinical Trials

Private Practice – Louisville, Kentucky

We seek a BC/BE ophthalmologist to join our long-established practice.

This is an opportunity to practice medical and surgical ophthalmology, emphasizing the treatment of anterior segment disease, cataract surgery, and laser vision correction. Additionally, physicians in our practice offer clinical trials as a care option. We believe in long-term patient relationships, including each physician following their own patients for office care, pre-operatively and post-operatively.

If you so desire, you will have the option to be an owner in our practice. You will share in the profits from optometry services, optical, contact lenses, clinical trials, and other financial investments. Ambulatory surgery center ownership is available, too.

If your circumstances dictate that ownership may not be right for you, let's talk anyway! We can make other arrangements for your practice success regardless of ownership status.

We have a loyal group of referring physicians within a 120-mile radius and find that our patients routinely refer their friends and family to us.

We are privately owned by our ophthalmologists and do not anticipate selling to a private equity firm.
