I hope you are having a wonderful weekend! I have an exciting opportunity from my place of work! Doctor Khanh Tran of Attentive Eye Care Optometry is looking for students to work as part-time or full-time opticians. All applicants will be trained. Anyone can reach out to shadow or volunteer as well!
Dr. Tran is an alumni of UCI (class of 2000) and SCCO (class of 2005) and is also a professor at both SCCO and Western. He has also spoken for the club in the past and is willing to help those interested in the job during the application process as well! You will get to meet other optometrists and faculty members of optometry schools as they often come in for patients within their field of expertise. For example, Dr. Do comes in once a week for pediatric and geriatric patients and Dr. Han comes once a month for pediatric day when she is off from teaching at SCCO.
My personal experience working with Dr. Tran has been amazing. The hiring process was easy, no scary interview. He is very kind and understanding. He loves to talk and joke with us. His eye exams are very thorough and patients always leave happy with our services. He emphasizes putting school and our career goals first by being very flexible with scheduling and sharing his passion for optometry by answering all our questions and showing us case studies. All of my coworkers attended UCI and a few are part of our club! Unfortunately, I have to move back to the San Fernando Valley and my coworker got into optometry school (thanks to Dr. Tran’s letter of rec!), so he is looking to hire more pre-optometry students.
If you are interested in the job/shadowing/volunteering opportunity, please contact Dr. Tran by calling or texting him directly at (714)737-8887.
