Are you fun, up-lifting person who takes initiative and pride in your work, is a solution-seeker with a can-do attitude, and has a genuine desire to help your patients and support your team members?
If so, look no further. We have the right career for you. We do work that matters and we do it right, each time, every time. No experience, no problem. We will train anyone with the right attitude and aptitude.
Image the following scenarios
Scenario 1
A patient had a refractive procedure to get rid of her glasses. It was cutting edge at the time, but now would be considered medical malpractice due to its long-term side effects. The patient comes to you depressed because she now cant see 20/20 even with glasses. You and your team fit her into specialty eyewear. She comes back full of gratitude because not only can she see 20/20, she was able to witness her son tear up as he watched his bride walk down the aisle. If not for your help, she would not have had the vision necessary to make that memory.
Scenario 2
A middle-aged patient comes in for a routine eye exam and reports that hes always struggled reading. You and your team discover an undiagnosed eye-teaming disorder. You make up his glasses and give him a magazine to read. He bursts into tears and tells you that this is the first time in 50 years that hes been able to read without losing his place. All this time he thought that he was dumb, but it turned out that he just had an undiagnosed eye condition.
