Optometrist for Rutland, Vermont

Optometrist – Rutland, Vermont

Ready to practice optometry in a beautiful New England town where work-life balance isn’t just a buzzword? We’re looking for a personable, skilled, and motivated medical optometrist to join a well-established, hospital-owned practice in scenic Rutland, Vermont.

You’ll be working alongside a collaborative ophthalmologist and a top-notch team of six certified ophthalmic assistants. The office is located right next to the hospital, making coordination of care simple and efficient. From pediatrics to geriatrics, you'll serve a wide range of patients with a full spectrum of vision and eye health services—assessments, diagnoses, treatment, and ongoing management of visual system conditions.

We’re looking for someone who’s completed an accredited optometry program (OD), is licensed through the NBEO and the State of Vermont, and holds a current BLS certification. A few years of clinical experience is great, but a strong patient-first approach, clear communication, and a collaborative spirit matter even more.

What’s in it for you? Beyond working in a modern, supportive environment, you’ll enjoy a competitive salary range plus some seriously attractive benefits: 403(b) retirement with match, health, dental, vision, and life insurance, malpractice coverage, CME funding, generous combined time off, and even assistance with relocation, sign-on, and student loans. We’re also a Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) eligible employer.

And when the workday ends? Rutland is an outdoor lover’s paradise—skiing, hiking, mountain biking, and lakes are right at your doorstep. It’s a friendly community with excellent schools, a low cost of living, and easy access to Boston, NYC, and Montreal for weekend adventures. It’s the kind of place people visit to unwind… and you’ll get to call it home.
