Best Questions Young Ophthalmologists Should Ask When Interviewing for Job Opportunities.
Here's a helpful checklist for Young Ophthalmologists who are searching for jobs or partnership opportunities.
Questions for YO’s to Ask or Discuss When Interviewing for Jobs and Partnership Opportunities- Drew Caldwell at OjO
Wouldn’t it be great if you had a career mentor- or a career coach or counselor who could help you navigate the national MD/Ophthalmology jobs scene? That’s what this checklist is all about. I refer to this checklist as the “Things I Wish I Had Known to Ask” questions and topics for ophtho job seekers. This list has been 11 years in the making and is based on my experience and the experience of countless surgeons I’ve worked and talked with about finding the best ophthalmology partnership or job opportunity. Keep in mind- you, as a YO will have many, many good job choices and options- but not all opportunities are created equal. Put another way, it’s easy to find a job, it’s a lot tougher to find a really great opportunity with a talented, ethical team of MDs that you’ll fit in well with.
Here’s the List.
Who owns the ASC?
What is the commute time from the office where I’ll work to the ASC?
Doctor and Staff turnover.
How often do associates become partners?
How does the practice handle negative online reviews?
Is there a Mentor in the House?
Are there any teaching opportunities with this position (formally or informally)?
How busy will you really, truly, actually be?
Where will your patients come from?
I don’t understand the bonus structure in my contract- what do I do?
What will the buy-in cost and what does it include---What’s not included?
How numerous and how strong are their relationships with primary care MDs and ODs?
How important are word of mouth patient referrals to the practice?
Is the practice adding multiple doctors at the same time?
How will the practice market you so that you can both be quickly successful?
Is the practice considering a merger, acquiring another group or perhaps selling out to private equity?
If I prefer not to become a partner, will I be allowed to stay on as an employee?
What are the steps to becoming a partner?
What are the advantages of becoming a partner?
Would you mind if I talk with the last doctor who was here?
In what ways is the practice always looking to improve patient eye care?
How happy are you with your EMR?
What does the group do or want to do to attract and keep top notch non-MD talent?
How will you fit into the practice?
What is the practice culture? What’s it like to actually work here?
How much time will be spent at remote locations?
What is the commute time to each location?
What kinds of patients will be sent to you from other doctors in the organization?
Tech support...experienced--- turnover?
Can you meet and speak with people in other departments, not just doctors. Such as front desk, billing, techs, marketing, administration? Do you tend to hear a lot of people talking about why they believe in the organization?
How are decisions, especially big decisions in the practice, made?
Flexibility in the schedule.
Has your attorney reviewed your contract? Suppose you lose your job or decide to switch practices...Will you be able to stay in the area and still practice locally or will you and your family have to relocate?
Thanks for reading OjO's blog on the "Best Questions for YOs to Ask When Searching for a Job".
If you have any questions about this career checklist, or you'd like us to present this information to your residency or fellowship program, please let us know.

OPHTHALMOLOGIST to join our way-busy, wicked-fun, utopian, MD/OD practice in suburban Alaska!
Wolf Eye Center, Inc
WASILLA, Alaska
Seriously, we are friggin' awesome (if not entirely utopian or modest), and we need you to join us to absorb the tremendous demand for our amazing patient care experience!
If you are a highly skilled, motivated, and genuinely friendly surgeon (no snobs please), launch a fantastic chapter with us, in our gorgeous, state-of-the-art, free-standing, 12,000 sf eye center with full optical, technical, and administrative support.
Plan on starting with 400 cataracts per year in a sexy new multispecialty ASC (which you should buy into!).
Work with every conceivable type of patient, injury, and medical/surgical eye disease, in close collaboration with me and our two fabulous, eminently capable optometrists.
This is not the boonies. We currently offer Symfony and toric IOLs, iStents, blephs, SLT, PIs, and minor office adventures, but refer most surgical glaucoma, cornea/refractive, retina, peds, and complex plastics. Feel free to add new services and overflow our parking lot! Lots of latitude, minimal attitude. Just saying.
We are spoiled brats, and have every diagnostic/treatment gadget that we want. We work our technicians, scribes, and opticians like rented mules, to make the docs' day easier (somewhat kidding). Our expert full-time IT, HR, and billing heros will keep your productivity maximized. So far we have refused to implement EMR, because they are sucky, and slow us down. There, I said it.
You will make serious Benjamins, with full bennies. We even have our own in-house Krav Maga studio. Weird, huh? Prepare to be amazed, not appalled. We're looking for a long term partner track relationship, with the all the responsibilities that requires, but you'll be treated like royalty.
Wolf Eye Center is strategically located in suburban Wasilla, in the Mat-Su Valley of southcentral Alaska. It's a spectacular setting of natural beauty with endless outdoor recreation possibilities, excellent schools, small town charm, actual cultural events, minimal traffic, no commuting, paltry sales tax, and no state income tax!

Please visit www.alaskavisit.com for an intro to our area. It's mostly true! And again, this isn't the edge of the earth. I'm from New Jersey, and I believe we've got pretty much every urban/suburban amenity here. Except decent pizza. It's pretty awful. I have to make it on the grill.
I really look forward to discussing this position with you (and trying to convince you how wonderful winter can be). Please email your situation to me (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) or call the cell (907-232-8046...remember AK is 1 hour earlier than Pacific time).

Wow! Look What Wills Eye Hospital is Working On...Implantable Device for Blind RP Patients.
This is really great news! Here's some incredible news from one of the best Ophthalmology training and eye research centers in the U.S.; Wills Eye Hospital. Take a look.
WILLS EYE SPONSORS FIRST U.S. STUDY OF DEVICE FOR BLIND RETINITIS PIGMENTOSA PATIENTS
WILLS EYE HOSPITAL SPONSORS FIRST U.S. “EARLY FEASIBILITY STUDY” OF NEW IMPLANTABLE DEVICE FOR BLIND RETINITIS PIGMENTOSA PATIENTS
Wills Eye Hospital has been given Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval to begin an early feasibility study (EFS) to implant the RETINA IMPLANT Alpha AMS sub-retinal device in patients blind due to Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP). The Alpha AMS is manufactured by Retina Implant AG, Reutlingen, Germany and has been designed to replace the non-functioning and absent photoreceptor cells in the eye lost to the RP deterioration. The surgically implanted Alpha AMS chip stimulates the remaining components of the visual system to restore limited functional vision in blind RP patients. The eye’s own natural focusing system (without the need of a camera) focuses light on a chip made of 1600 photo diodes. The RETINA IMPLANT Alpha AMS is an investigational device in the US and has CE Mark approval in Europe since 2016.
“This study represents the very earliest phase of clinically testing a potential new option for patients and families grappling with the devastating blindness caused by Retinitis Pigmentosa. We are thankful for the smooth process in working with the FDA and for the opportunity of offering this exciting technology in the form of an EFS investigational study to our blind RP patients for the first time in the U.S.” noted Julia A. Haller, MD, Wills Eye Hospital Ophthalmologist-in-Chief.
Retinitis pigmentosa is a degenerative eye disease which is the leading cause of inherited blindness in the developed world. There is no known cure for RP which affects an estimated 100,000 people in the USA and 1.5 million people worldwide. Approximately 1,500 individuals with RP each year progress to total blindness. Wills Eye Hospital is the only site in North America conducting this investigational research study and will enroll up to eight patients for implantation. If this initial study demonstrates encouraging results, a larger pivotal study will be performed to gain FDA approval.
Here's a link to the original article at Wills Eye Hospital: https://www.willseye.org/wills-eye-sponsors-first-u-s-study-of-device-for-blind-retinitis-pigmentosa-patients/
Here's a neat fact about the Wills Eye Hospital: More ophthalmologists have trained at Wills Eye than any other program in the U.S.
