Overview

Northwest Permanente is currently hiring a Board Certified or Board Eligible Ophthalmologist to join our Kaiser Permanente team in Portland, OR. You will join an integrated and compassionate team of physicians and supportive clinical and administrative staff, providing a mix of Pediatric and Comprehensive Ophthalmology. Our Ophthalmologists are part of a truly comprehensive practice, offering the opportunity to work in a connected and comprehensive health care model, with the associated efficiencies. We offer an abundant surgical volume providing care for a full range of ophthalmologic disorders. The amount of subspecialty work will vary based on the needs of our patients and team.
