Ophthalmologist – Comprehensive Cataract Surgeon or Any Specialty – Full-Time – Elkins Park, PA
Sign-On Bonus Available
A well-established, physician-led ophthalmology practice in the Philadelphia area is seeking a Comprehensive Ophthalmologist, Cataract Surgeon, or Fellowship-Trained Specialist to join its growing team in Elkins Park, PA.
This is an outstanding opportunity to inherit an 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 position offers strong mentorship, long-term growth potential, and the opportunity to build a thriving career in a collaborative setting.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
Immediate Patient Volume & Surgical Opportunity
Step into a busy, established practice with strong community demand and an active surgical schedule from day one.
Physician-Led, Collaborative Environment
Join a highly respected group that prioritizes physician autonomy, patient-centered care, and a supportive team culture. The practice is structured to minimize administrative burden so physicians can focus on delivering exceptional care.
Mentorship & Clinical Development
Work alongside experienced surgeons who are committed to mentorship and professional growth. This is an excellent opportunity for newer surgeons looking to refine their skills while building confidence in a supportive environment.
You’ll also have the opportunity to gain exposure to:
- High-volume cataract surgery
- Advanced refractive care
- Select cornea cases within the practice
The group maintains a focused scope of care, with glaucoma, retina, oculoplastics, neuro-ophthalmology, and pediatric cases referred externally, allowing physicians to concentrate on comprehensive ophthalmology and surgical care.
Strong Clinical Support
Providers benefit from:
- Dedicated technicians and scribes
- Modern ophthalmic technology and diagnostics
- Efficient clinic workflows
- A collaborative multidisciplinary team
What You’ll Do
- Provide comprehensive ophthalmic care to a diverse patient population
- Perform cataract evaluations and surgery
- Diagnose and manage ocular disease
- Collaborate with fellow physicians and clinical staff
- Build long-term patient relationships in a well-established community practice
Fellowship-trained specialists are encouraged to apply, and the practice is open to a variety of subspecialty interests.
What We’re Looking For
- MD or DO degree with completion of Ophthalmology residency
- Board-certified or board-eligible
- Fellowship training welcomed but not required
- Strong clinical and surgical skills
- Team-oriented mindset with excellent patient care focus
Both experienced ophthalmologists and upcoming graduates are encouraged to apply.
Compensation & Benefits
- Competitive base salary starting at $325,000+
- Production and performance bonuses
- Sign-on bonus
- Partnership/equity opportunity within the first few years
- Health, dental, and life insurance
- 401(k) with employer match
- Malpractice coverage
- CME allowance
- Paid time off
- Relocation assistance
