Ophthalmologist – Comprehensive or Cornea/Cataract Specialist – Full-Time – Massachusetts
Location: Springfield, MA
Sign-On Bonus Available
A highly respected, physician-led ophthalmology group in Massachusetts is seeking a Comprehensive Ophthalmologist or Cornea/Cataract Specialist to join its growing team in Springfield, MA.
This is an outstanding opportunity to step into a busy, established patient base with immediate clinical and surgical volume due to the upcoming retirement of a long-tenured physician. Whether you are an experienced surgeon or a recent residency/fellowship graduate, this role offers strong mentorship, advanced technology, and a clear pathway toward long-term partnership within a collaborative and supportive environment.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
Immediate Patient & Surgical Volume
Join a well-established practice with strong regional reputation and consistent referral flow. Physicians benefit from immediate access to a high-volume cataract and comprehensive ophthalmology schedule.
Flexible Subspecialty Focus
This role offers a mix of:
- Comprehensive ophthalmology
- High-volume cataract surgery
- Cornea-focused surgical opportunities
Physicians who are interested may also have the opportunity to work across state lines into Connecticut, offering additional clinical variety and growth potential.

You’ll benefit from:

- State-of-the-art ophthalmic technology
- Streamlined clinical workflows
- Strong physician support staff

Mentorship & Career Development
Mentorship opportunities are available for newer physicians seeking surgical development and confidence-building in practice, while experienced providers will find strong autonomy and leadership opportunities.
Advanced Technology
Modern facilities equipped with advanced diagnostic and surgical technology designed to support excellent outcomes and efficient patient care.
Clinical Autonomy
Enjoy the independence to build your own practice while collaborating within a supportive, multidisciplinary team.
Long-Term Growth Potential
The organization offers equity partnership opportunities within the first few years, along with leadership development and involvement in practice growth initiatives.
What You’ll Do
- Provide comprehensive ophthalmic care to a diverse patient population
- Perform cataract and corneal surgical evaluations and procedures
- Diagnose and manage ocular disease
- Collaborate closely with ophthalmologists, optometrists, and support staff
- Build long-term patient relationships within a growing regional practice
What We’re Looking For
- MD or DO degree with completion of Ophthalmology residency
- Fellowship training in Cornea welcomed but not required (depending on experience)
- Board-certified or board-eligible
- Strong surgical and clinical skills
- Patient-focused and team-oriented mindset
Both experienced physicians and upcoming graduates are encouraged to apply.
Compensation & Benefits

- Production and performance bonuses
- Sign-on bonus
- Partnership/equity opportunity
- Health, dental, and life insurance
- 401(k) with employer match
