Ophthalmologist

Ophthalmologist / Cataract Surgeon

Eugene, Oregon

Build, Lead, and Grow Within a High-Performing Private Practice

The Eye Center is seeking an experienced comprehensive ophthalmologist/cataract surgeon to join our established, physician-owned private practice in Eugene, Oregon. This opportunity is ideally suited for a seasoned physician or entrepreneurial-minded surgeon who values clinical excellence, operational influence, and long-term ownership potential.

The incoming physician will step into immediate surgical volume and a built-in patient base, as a senior partner transitions away from full‑time clinical practice. This is a rare opportunity to expand quickly while helping guide the future direction of a highly respected regional practice.

• Independent, physician‑owned private practice serving Eugene, Florence, and Newport since 1984
• Strong brand recognition and long‑standing reputation for excellence in patient care
• Technology‑driven practice with comprehensive refractive offerings and premium IOLs
• Robust referral base with established co‑management relationships across the region
• Modernized main clinic with recently updated facilities
• On‑site ambulatory surgery centre and refractive suite featuring advanced diagnostics and surgical technology
• Modernising Medicine EMR

• Immediate access to high surgical volume, including cataract and refractive surgery
• Ability to shape clinical offerings, operational workflows, and long‑term strategy
• Established infrastructure that supports growth without the burden of building from scratch
• Highly experienced clinical and administrative support staff
• Two satellite clinics on the Oregon Coast (Florence and Newport) provide geographic reach and growth opportunity
• Light call responsibilities: shared among all area ophthalmologists (approximately 2–3 weeks annually); no required hospital call, with optional compensated hospital call available

• Board‑certified ophthalmologist with significant cataract surgery experience
• Fellowship training welcomed but not required
• Entrepreneurial mindset with interest in leadership, growth, and long‑term practice development
• Strong clinical judgment, surgical skill, and collegial approach
• Clean professional and disciplinary history

• Competitive income guarantee during transition
• Comprehensive benefits package
• Partnership track available, including opportunities for ownership in:
• The practice
• Ambulatory surgery centre
• Optical

This position offers both financial upside and professional autonomy for a physician seeking more than an employed role.

• Dynamic university community (population ~175,000) and home to the University of Oregon
• Exceptional lifestyle with access to mountains, Pacific Ocean, and high desert
• Ideal for outdoor enthusiasts: hiking, cycling, fishing, skiing, and more
• Excellent schools, cultural amenities, and a high quality of life
