Optometrist

Optometrist | Full-Time | Opticare Forks Vision Clinic (East Grand Forks & Crookston, MN)

Join a private practice that puts people first, both patients and team members alike. Opticare is a thriving, doctor-owned optometry practice with three full-time optometrists and two well-established locations in northern Minnesota. We’re seeking a full-time Optometrist to help meet strong patient demand and support a smooth transition as two of our doctors move toward retirement.

The Role
