Job Description

Culpeper Eye Associates is seeking a compassionate and motivated Optometrist to join our well-established practice in Culpeper, Virginia. This role offers the opportunity to practice full-scope primary eye care in a supportive, well-equipped environment with a loyal patient base and an experienced team.

You’ll provide comprehensive eye exams, diagnose and manage ocular conditions, prescribe corrective lenses, and contribute to an exceptional patient experience. Whether you’re a seasoned optometrist or a recent graduate, this is an opportunity to build meaningful patient relationships while practicing high-quality, thoughtful care without feeling rushed or overbooked.

We are committed to accommodating the right candidate’s schedule and offer competitive compensation. Whether you’re looking for full-time, part-time, or a balanced schedule that supports life outside the office, we’re open to conversation.

Our patients trust us, our staff enjoys working together, and our doctors are given the time and support to practice optometry the right way.

Beyond the practice, Culpeper offers a charming downtown, excellent dining and local wineries, access to outdoor recreation, and easy proximity to Charlottesville, Northern Virginia, and Washington, D.C. — without the traffic or cost of living.

Candidate Description

The ideal candidate is someone who:

• Genuinely enjoys connecting with patients and the community

• Values clear communication

• Practices with care, curiosity, and attention to detail
