Contract/Temporary Optometrist Needed for Correctional Facility in Pottsville, Pennsylvania
About the Role:
The prison currently has an onsite optometrist; however, they've been unable to keep up with the growing backlog of consults. At the prison's request, we're hoping to find someone who can provide temporary coverage until the backlog is under control. At this time, there are 287 optometry consults awaiting completion. The Health Services Administrator is requesting an optometrist who can provide onsite services three days per month until they are caught up.

What Our Optometrists Say:
In private practice, it can sometimes feel like you're not doing anything special since patients can easily go to another clinic for the same experience. However, in a correctional setting, the patients are genuinely appreciative of the help you provide because they don't have many people willing to assist them. This appreciation is what keeps many of our optometrists coming back day after day, year after year. The gratitude expressed in this setting is often greater than what is seen in private practice, and this is also true for community health work.
