At Dittman Eyecare, we are proud to take great care of our patients’ needs, taking time to really hear their concerns, and using the latest equipment to provide outstanding service and comprehensive care. We are constantly updating our knowledge and technology to provide services and products that aren’t available elsewhere, and patients are relieved and grateful when we can solve a problem that no one else has figured out. We are able to do this by offering services that include but are not limited to IPL, TearCare, Myopia Management, Scleral Lenses, Neurolens, plus full-scope medical eye care and routine vision services. The hours promote work-life balance with only 2 evenings until 7 and no weekends. We offer health insurance, profit sharing 401k, medical malpractice, vacation days, and state licensing fees. Salary range is approximately $115,000 to $180,000. Along with hiring an optometrist, we are investing now to build a strong and capable team that will allow us to grow. This team includes 2-3 well trained scribes per doctor who do all pre-testing, specialized testing as needed, prepare the exam room, enter all information into the EHR, schedule further exams and testing and then escorts the patient to the optical as needed. This flow allows you to truly concentrate on the patient and not on entering data or running a piece of an equipment!
