This role is based in a high-volume retina clinic environment that is extremely fast paced, with daily patient volumes typically ranging from 80 to over 100 patients. Work hours fall between 6:30 a.m. and 6:00 p.m., with specific shifts scheduled within that window based on clinic needs; starting as early as 6:30 a.m. or working as late as 6:00 p.m. is rare and usually occurs only when the clinic is extremely busy. Initial training will take place at an administrative building in the Galleria area for a dedicated training day. The ophthalmic photographer works as part of a larger clinical team, typically within a group of 8–24 staff members, with each physician supported by approximately 8 clinic staff. The role is tied to three primary clinics, with a home clinic in a busy Houston location that regularly sees over 100 patients a day, and additional support provided to nearby clinics as needed.
