Associate Optometrist – Changing lives through better sight

Duncan

The independent optometrist at Specsavers Duncan is looking for an associate optometrist to join their thriving clinic. This opportunity qualifies for up to a $100k forgivable loan with a three-year commitment.

Specsavers is the world’s largest, privately-owned optical retailer. Our journey began 40 years ago in the UK, with visionary optometrists Doug and Mary Perkins. Today, we support over 2,800 healthcare businesses, passionately caring for more than 48 million patients and customers worldwide.

We believe that access to quality eyecare should be a right, not a luxury. That’s why we’ve made OCT available as a standard part of eye exams. With our advanced clinical equipment and an extensive range of affordable and high-quality eyewear, we’re here to make a real difference in the lives of our customers.

Your opportunity and practice   

Offering eye exams when patients need them starts with having the right team in each of our optometrist-owned and operated clinics. By joining an independent Optometry Partner and a team of passionate eyecare professionals, you’ll make a meaningful impact on eye health in the community.

Our Duncan location   

This clinic is seeking coverage for 5 days per week, and a waitlist of 22 days to next appointment. This is an excellent opportunity for an optometrist who values autonomy, flexibility, and a relational approach to patient care.

Your associate optometrist opportunity gives you:

Clinical Excellence: Benefit from a fully integrated clinic with the latest diagnostic technology, including:  

  • The NIDEK Tonoref 3
  • NIDEK automated lensometer
  • Topcon Maestro2
  • NIDEK intelligent refract RT-6100
  • S4OPTIK slit lamp
  • Zeiss HFA3 with SITA Faster visual field

Viewing patient pre-test reports and history is easier than ever and ensures so you can have more informed consultations with your patients.

Culture of Dedication: Join a team committed to community eyecare and proactive monitoring of eye health for preventable vision loss, with OCT available as a standard part of every eye exam.

Clinical Autonomy: Practice in a private, independent clinic with the support and resources of Specsavers, giving you the freedom to deliver care your way.

Pre-test Support: Trained eyecare consultants welcome and take your patients through pre-testing so you have reports sent directly to your exam room to prepare for your consultations.

Professional Development: Get access to a qualified optometry support consultant for professional development on-site and virtually.

Compensation:

Receive a daily minimum or percentage of billings, whichever amount is higher for each clinic day worked. The expected range for this role is:

Daily minimum between $900 to $1000

Percentage of billings between 80% and 85%

This opportunity qualifies for up to a $100k forgivable loan with a three-year commitment. Ask to learn more about how our forgivable loan program can help you with your student loan. Final compensation will be determined based on experience and skillset by the independent clinic owner.
