Build a Meaningful Career—and a Life You Love—in Western
Colorado
At Valley Vision, we believe a fulfilling career should leave room for a fulfilling life.
For more than 30 years, our practice has cared for generations of families throughout
Grand Junction and Western Colorado. Today, we’re looking for an optometrist who
wants to become part of that legacy while bringing new energy, interests, and ideas to
Valley Vision.
Whether you’re an experienced optometrist looking for a fresh opportunity or a newer
doctor searching for mentorship and a place to grow, Valley Vision offers something
increasingly difficult to find: an established patient base, experienced clinical support,
professional variety, a welcoming team culture, and genuine work-life balance.
A Practice Built on Relationships
Valley Vision has been part of the Grand Junction community for more than three
decades. Our patients aren’t simply names on a schedule—they’re families we’ve cared
for across generations.
Valley Vision is a busy, well-established family practice serving patients of all
ages. It provides a strong foundation for a doctor who wants to step into an existing
patient base while developing their professional interests and building long-term
relationships within the community.
We’re proud of the history we’ve built, but we’re equally excited about what comes next.
The Future of Valley Vision
Valley Vision has always been known for comprehensive family eye care. As
Grand Junction continues to grow, we see an exciting opportunity to expand the practice
and become an even stronger resource for children, families, students, and athletes
throughout Western Colorado.
We’re looking for a doctor who is excited to help us grow areas such as:
• Pediatric eye care
• Vision therapy
• Sports vision and visual performance
• Myopia management
• Medical optometry and ocular disease
• Specialty services aligned with their interests
Located on North Avenue directly beneath the student housing at Colorado Mesa
University, Valley Vision is uniquely positioned to serve CMU students and
athletes while expanding sports vision, performance-focused optometry, and services
for younger patients.
This is an opportunity to join an established practice without being limited by what has
always been done. We want to support the right doctor in developing meaningful
services that reflect their interests and meet the evolving needs of our community.
Experience Around You. Opportunity Ahead of You.
Joining Valley Vision means working alongside experienced optometrists and a team
with decades of knowledge in patient care, optical services, and practice operations.
You won’t be expected to build everything from the ground up. You’ll have the support of
an established practice, a loyal patient community, experienced doctors, and a
knowledgeable team—all while having the freedom to develop your own identity as a
provider.
For a newer doctor, this means valuable mentorship and the opportunity to grow with
confidence. For an experienced optometrist, it means stepping into a respected practice
where your expertise, leadership, and ideas will be valued.
We’re interested in finding the right person—not simply filling a position.
Two Locations. One Shared Commitment to Exceptional Care.
Valley Vision offers two distinct practice environments, each designed to meet different
needs within our community.
Valley Vision Center
Located on North Avenue directly beneath the student housing at Colorado Mesa
University, Valley Vision Center is an energetic, well-established family practice caring
for patients throughout every stage of life.
With a loyal patient base built over more than 30 years, Valley Vision Center offers a
strong community presence and exciting opportunities for growth in pediatric eye care,
vision therapy, sports vision, and myopia management.
Valley Vision Downtown
Valley Vision Downtown offers a personalized, boutique-style experience centered
around advanced eye care, ocular wellness, and elevated hospitality.
Valley Vision Downtown combines comprehensive and medical eye care with advanced
dry-eye and ocular-surface treatments, including IPL and radiofrequency. It also offers
specialty eyewear, personalized optical styling, eye aesthetics, and select in-office
procedures in a relaxed, thoughtfully designed environment.
Together, Valley Vision Center and Valley Vision Downtown create opportunities for
doctors to experience a broad range of patient care while being part of one collaborative
practice.
A Team That Truly Works Together
Our culture is built around respect, communication, teamwork, and a shared
commitment to taking exceptional care of our patients.
We believe people do their best work when they feel supported, appreciated, and
comfortable contributing their ideas. Our doctors and staff work collaboratively, help one
another through busy days, and celebrate each other’s successes.
We value professionalism and accountability, but we also believe work should be
enjoyable. We want our team members to feel connected to the practice, confident in
their roles, and excited about what we’re building together.
As Valley Vision continues to grow, we’re looking for someone who wants to be an
active part of that growth—someone who values a positive environment, treats others
with kindness and respect, and wants to contribute to a strong, healthy team culture.
A Career That Leaves Room for Living
Life in Western Colorado moves differently.
Grand Junction offers the professional opportunities of a growing community without the
traffic, congestion, and pace of a major metropolitan area. Here, your time outside of
work can truly feel like your own.
Before work, after work, or on your days off, you can enjoy:
• Mountain biking, hiking, and trail running
• Exploring the Colorado National Monument
• Skiing and snowboarding at Powderhorn Mountain Resort on the Grand Mesa
• Fishing, camping, and river activities
• Golf and year-round outdoor recreation
• Live music and outdoor concerts at Las Colonias Amphitheater
• Local wineries, restaurants, and community events
• Weekend access to destinations such as Vail, Aspen, Telluride, and Moab
It’s a place where you can build a rewarding career without putting the rest of your life
on hold.
Our Team Works Here—and Lives Here
For us, work-life balance isn’t simply something we talk about—it’s part of how we live.
Our doctors and team members make the most of everything Western Colorado has to
offer, from early-morning trail rides and afternoons on the water to powder days,
mountain hikes, and outdoor concerts.
We work hard, care deeply for our patients, and believe there should still be time and
energy left for the people, places, and experiences that make life meaningful.
