FT Optometrist

Description:

If you are looking for a place to settle down and raise a family in a safe, smaller, midwest city while enjoying working in a thriving, growing practice with state of the art equipment and no big city competition, contact me. It's good to be a big fish in a little pond and make an excellent living! Especially if you dream of owning your own practice someday. I started cold in my hometown in 1990 and grew the practice over the years by myself. Now we have a new, 2,900 sq. ft. stand alone building with 4 lanes all equipped with Marco TRS autophoropters, Marco OPD, Optovue Ivue OCT, Optos Daytona, Icare tonometers, Neurolens screener, Humphrey 540 Visual Field unit and Konan Specular microscope. We are 50/50 medical care and refractive. We are living the dream here and having fun and I would like to share that with another OD if you are a good fit with our office vision, culture and values. While still seeing patients full time, I personally would like to have more time off and work on administration of the office more. Imagine having a mentor and colleague as you grow in experience. Dumas is a small town of about 15,000 and is about 50 miles north of Amarillo, TX, midway from DFW to Denver, about 6 hours either way. We have a diverse economy with oil/gas refineries in the county as well as plenty of farming/ranching. We have a JBS beef plant and many dairies. We do not see economic downturns as other places do and our cost of living is low! Lake Meredith is 20 miles away for waterskiing/tubing and with great Crappie, Smallmouth and Sand Bass and Walleye fishing. The mountains are 4 hours away if you like fishing, hiking and camping. Amarillo is 45 minutes away for more shopping and entertainment, with a good airport for trips out of town. We go and play when we want easily and then come back home where we feel safe and not much traffic to deal with. Dumas has great schools with awesome sports programs. We also have very little crime. This is Friday Night Lights football games country with homecoming bonfires, 4th of July fireworks and parades, sweet corn on the town square picnics, rodeos, baseball games and apple pie (or sometimes Churros and ice cream). Americana at it's best. Everyone knows you and your kids at the grocery store and church. If you speak Spanish, this is especially a great opportunity as well, since our demographics are about 60% Hispanic and 40% Anglo. Since I am not ready to retire for some time, this could be a great opportunity to buy into a practice slowly to make it more affordable as well as minimize taxes. A win/win situation. I'm praying for the right person to hand over my baby to someday. If you are looking to get out of the rat race of the big city and fierce competition, this could be your home where you could have a great life. Contact me if you are interested in learning more.
