**About the Opportunity**:
An opportunity exists for a Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada certified, patient-oriented team player to join a busy, private, fee-for-service Ophthalmology clinic in the Annapolis Valley and work alongside two other comprehensive ophthalmologists. The office is well established in an ideal location just a few minutes from Hwy 101 in New Minas and serves a population of approximately 110,000 centered in Kings County.

The position is suited to a true comprehensive ophthalmologist as the current practice provides general ophthalmic care for medical glaucoma and retina, cornea, uveitis, low vision, lids and cataracts, and has a strong pediatric service with some strabismus surgery. Interest or additional training in glaucoma and/or oculoplastics would be an asset.

The office was renovated in 2008 and is a 6,000 sq. ft. ambulatory care facility with seven lanes and a minor procedure room equipped with a microscope. Experienced and well-trained clinical staff includes technicians, three orthoptists and administrative staff, who provide patient care and technical support with in-house Zeiss Cirrus OCT, Canon retinal camera, Optos, A- and B-Scans, IOL Master 500, specular microscope, topographer, Humphrey and Goldmann visual field machines, and Argon, SLT and YAG lasers.

The OR, located at a local community hospital Soldiers Memorial (SMH) in Middleton, has a new Alcon microscope and Centurion and an outstanding surgical support staff, including an anesthetist. There is one full day per week of OR time available for cataract surgery. Additional minor procedure time is available at Valley Regional Hospital (VRH) located nearby and provides a wide range of services (24-hour ER, internal medicine, diagnostic imaging, general surgery, urology, pediatrics, ENT, obs/gyn, orthopedics, vascular surgery).

The Nova Scotia Eye Centre (NSEC/IWK) is located in Halifax, approximately one hour away, and provides excellent and extensive sub-specialty care. Teaching opportunities exist at the NSEC as well as convenient access to numerous educational meetings.

The successful applicant will be a strong team player who can interact successfully with other team members of the staff and live locally. Overhead structure is a fixed percentage of billings.

**Responsibilities**:

- work as a full scope of practice ophthalmologist to provide care to the patients within the Western Zone
- support the Nova Scotia Health Authority in advancing the delivery of specialty care by liaising with the applicable staff within the zone and province
- provide consultation support to the Western Zone, which includes day-time coverage and occasional overnight/weekend coverage
- be accountable to the patient population in the Western Zone by providing clinics and occasional satellite clinics
- be responsible to the Zone Surgery Department Head for their professional responsibilities and quality of practice
- operate within the Bylaws and Rules and Regulations of Nova Scotia Health Authority

**Expected Hours**:

- full-time with one full operating room day per week

**Qualifications**:

- all applicants must be eligible for licensure with the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Nova Scotia (CPSNS)
- all specialists must be certified with Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada (RCPSC)
- membership with the Canadian Medical Protective Association (CMPA)
