Associate Optometrist Opportunity – Dickson, Tennessee

Dickson Eye Health is looking for an associate optometrist to join our practice in Dickson, Tennessee. We are a busy, established private practice with three optometrists and an experienced staff. We see a broad mix of primary care and medical eye care, including comprehensive exams, contact lenses, glaucoma, diabetic eye care, macular degeneration, dry eye, and urgent eye problems and injuries. We are looking for someone to work 3–4 days per week.
This would be a good fit for a doctor who wants to practice in a busy office with an established patient base and strong support staff. A new doctor would not be expected to build a schedule from scratch. We are already busy and are looking for someone who can step in and become part of the practice.
We are looking for someone who is kind, dependable, works well with others, and takes good care of patients. We want our doctors to feel comfortable using their own clinical judgment while also being part of a team that works well together.

We offer:
• Competitive compensation
• Production-based bonus incentives
• Health insurance
• Retirement plan
• Paid time off
• Continuing education allowance
• Malpractice insurance
• Professional licensure expenses
• Experienced clinical, administrative, and optical support staff
• Modern diagnostic equipment, including OCT, visual field testing, and Optos imaging

Dickson is a growing community about 40 minutes west of Nashville. It has a small-town feel, a lower cost of living than Nashville, and easy access to the rest of Middle Tennessee.

We are open to both experienced optometrists and new graduates. More than anything, we are looking for the right person who would be a good fit for our practice and our team.
