Trillium Health Partners (THP) is the largest community based academic health network in Ontario, serving over one million residents in the communities of Mississauga, Peel Region and West Toronto. The hospital encompasses three main sites – Credit Valley Hospital (CVH), Mississauga Hospital (MH), and Queensway Health Centre (QHC) – offering a full range of acute care hospital services. THP is a regional tertiary level Ophthalmology center, providing glaucoma, complex cataract/IOL surgery, paediatric ophthalmology/strabismus, corneal, oculoplastic care and cataract surgery.

The Surgery Program at THP is seeking a full-time Ophthalmologist to be a member of our Division of Ophthalmology focused on supporting the reduction of Cataract Surgery wait times. The ideal candidate will have FRCS(C) certification in Ophthalmology. In this role the successful candidate would join a dedicated team of fellow Ophthalmologists and work closely with the interprofessional team to support patient/family centered care.

The successful candidate will be expected to participate in the Division of Ophthalmology’s hospital on-call schedule, and surgical time for cataract surgery would be available. It is expected that the candidate would provide comprehensive office-based ophthalmologic care, with a community-based office practice that is located to provide accessible service to the residents of the Mississauga community. Decisions on an applicant’s candidacy for this Hospital role are separate from how the applicant chooses to establish their community-based practice.

THP is an affiliated academic teaching center with the University of Toronto. The successful candidate would be expected to participate in teaching of undergraduate and postgraduate medical learners, and to participate in quality improvement initiatives. Experience or strong interests in quality improvement, innovation, healthcare technologies, and clinical and applied research will be an asset. An appointment at THP's Institute for Better Health may be available to the successful candidate if they wish to include clinical research or population health research as part of their practice. Excellent interpersonal and leadership skills and a commitment to an inter-professional care model are also essential.

The position represents an opportunity to join a group of dedicated healthcare professionals in a progressive organization. The successful candidate will be licensed in good standing in Ontario or eligible for a license to practice in Ontario.
