You'll care for a diverse patient base across primary eye care, ocular disease management, pediatrics, geriatrics, and emergency care, while also having the opportunity to grow a specialized dry eye practice. Located within the Tisdale Healthplex alongside physicians, dentists, chiropractors, and laboratory services, the clinic features three fully equipped exam lanes with automated phoropters and is supported by a dedicated team committed to delivering exceptional patient care.
