Eye Specialists for Animals (ESFA) of Denver and Colorado Springs is looking to add a full-time board-certified or board eligible Ophthalmologist to our team for our Denver practice location. 

ESfA is an ophthalmology only specialty practice that has offered specialty eye care services to Denver, Colorado Springs, and surrounding areas for close to 30 years. We are a very well-established practice in Colorado, so any candidate would be stepping into a large and busy medical and surgical caseload from a great referring veterinary community.   

To learn more about our practice, please visit www.eyespecialistsforanimals.com.

The candidate would be an addition to our current three board certified veterinary ophthalmologists on staff between the two office locations. The position includes a 4-day work week (no weekends, evenings, or holidays) and would be supported by an efficient and well-trained technical staff. Salary is highly competitive, and we plan to relocate to a brand-new and larger Denver practice location within the next 1 to 1.5 years.

If you are interested in the position and want to learn more about our practice, you can contact one of our three boarded ophthalmologists:  Dr. Steven Dugan (stevenjdugan@comcast.net), Dr. Sara Smith (smithsm09@gmail.com), or Dr. Lori Best Hall (lbest101@gmail.com). We will be happy to answer any questions!
