Solo / Independent Practice Ophthalmology Job in Louisiana, Louisiana
This Ophthalmology position in Louisiana is offered as a solo/independent practice arrangement, one of several practice structures available for this role. In this model, you would own and run your own practice rather than being employed: billing under your own name, building your own patient panel, and directing your own staffing, scheduling, and practice style. The recruiting organization supports this path through an income guarantee, helping offset start-up costs while you establish the practice, in exchange for taking on the administrative and business responsibilities of ownership yourself.
The financial offering for this listing is noted as the national average. Emergency department call follows a 1:4 rotation.
The position is open to candidates who are board certified or board eligible, trained through allopathic or osteopathic programs, and either recently trained or experienced. This role is based in a community with a population between 100,000 and 499,999. Note that this same position is also offered under other structures, including single- and multi-specialty group, employed, academic, and community health center/FQHC arrangements, should a different practice model better suit your goals.
