Chris – Practice Administrator
I chose to join the team at Evergreen Eye Center and become the Practice Administrator because I was drawn to the organization’s commitment to excellence in ophthalmology and its patient-focused approach. The opportunity to work with a group of highly skilled professionals dedicated to improving vision and enhancing lives resonated with my passion for healthcare administration. I was impressed by Evergreen Eye Center’s emphasis on innovation, cutting-edge technology, and quality care, and I saw a chance to make a meaningful impact by optimizing the practice’s operations. Being part of a team that prioritizes both exceptional outcomes and a positive patient experience inspired me to contribute my skills to this leading ophthalmology group. My role as Practice Administrator at Evergreen Eye Center is not merely administrative; it is an opportunity to be an integral part of a transformative journey, improving vision and making a positive impact on the lives of those we serve.
Kelly G. – Director of Surgical Services
Working at Evergreen Eye Center has allowed me to grow both personally and professionally. I am honored to work alongside stellar staff and physicians whose number one goal is to offer patient centered care to every patient. At EEC, we offer the latest technology available to our patients, and it’s incredibly rewarding to be part of a patient’s education process, surgical planning, and overall surgery experience.
Brian C. – Practice Development Specialist
Evergreen Eye Center picked me up when I was down. I spent several years working in the hotel business when I was suddenly laid off during the economic crisis of 2008. After unsuccessfully searching for comparable hotel work I refocused my efforts to look for employment in the healthcare industry. Opportunity presented itself in the form of Evergreen Eye Center as a scheduler helping patients with appointments and answering questions by phone. I have always enjoyed helping people and resolving problems so this was right up my alley.
I found I truly enjoyed the work and tried to gain as much knowledge as I could. The providers at Evergreen are approachable, knowledgeable, professional, and dedicated. They have helped support and further my development in this industry. I now get to use the knowledge gained over the years to promote Evergreen to the local community as a Practice Development Specialist. In the end, I enjoy what I do, the environment I work in and the people I work with at Evergreen Eye Center.
Courtney Morgan – Federal Way Clinic Manager
Being a part of Evergreen Eye Center has been such an amazing experience. From a very young age I was always fascinated with eyes. The way that something so small could capture the whole world is amazing. I have been in the eye field for over 16 years and have to say, working for a company that treats their patients and staff like family is such a wonderful experience, and a team that I am proud to be a part of. Being able to come to work each and every day knowing that we are making such a difference in someone else’s life has to be the most rewarding feeling.
Lizabeth G. – Tacoma Clinic Manager
My career in Ophthalmology offers me the unique opportunity to help others and make a difference in their daily lives. Sight is so precious and having the chance to work with patients and their vision is very rewarding. This job gives me the chance to develop relationships with patients and engage in problem-solving that requires me to adapt on a case-by-case basis. I like the variety and flexibility in that, and there is never a dull moment!
Nicole P. – Auburn Clinic Manager
Since 2008, I’ve immersed myself in the dynamic world of eye care, embarking on a journey that began as a Pretesting Tech at an Optometry clinic and culminated in a role as Supervisor at a multifaceted specialty practice. Joining Evergreen marks a pivotal shift towards Clinical Management, a new horizon I’m eager to explore after years of dedicated service in the industry.
What sets Evergreen apart is the unwavering support I’ve encountered at every level of administration. It’s a rare feeling to be embraced by a team where I truly feel like I belong. This sense of camaraderie fuels my excitement for the opportunities ahead – the chance to grow both personally and professionally, and to deepen my expertise within this esteemed company.
Lisa B. – Seattle and Burien Clinic Manager
In the past, I faced situations where opportunities to thrive were limited, and my voice wasn’t always heard. I began my ophthalmology career in 2018 with a strong desire to make a difference – ensuring that patients felt heard, cared for, and that no concern was overlooked. My passion for eye care grew along with my love for my role.
Eventually, I had the chance to co-manage a sister clinic of Evergreen Eye Center, where I could extend the same compassion to both my colleagues and providers. This experience led to an exciting opportunity to manage the Burien location of Evergreen Eye Center.
Transitioning to a solo management role, I was met with exceptional support and open communication from both colleagues and the organization. This support mirrored the care we extend to our patients, reinforcing how valued I am as an employee. I’ve now been given the opportunity to manage the Seattle clinic as well as Burien, and I am grateful for the trust and confidence Evergreen Eye Center has placed in me. Evergreen Eye Center has been a fantastic place to work, and I deeply appreciate the level of support and attention given to every patient, reflecting the supportive environment I’ve experienced here.
For all these reasons, I choose Evergreen Eye Center.
