Application Question(s):
- Please see the job listing; you MUST either have had Laser vision correction (LVC) or WANT LVC AS A JOB BENEFIT because we require each employee to be able to recommend LVC from a PERSONAL POV and be able to explain it from the patient's POV
- This is a reasonable ask as it begs the question, “If LVC is so safe, why haven’t you done it yourself?” Much like a dental office, it would be unusual for the staff to have unhealthy teeth when they are working in a practice that has an experienced and expert dentist.
- Lastly, it makes sense to not only have LVC done for free as it is normally a $5000-$7000 procedure on average. It is also very helpful for patients to have you as a resource when they want to know what to expect. Experiencing it for yourself makes it easier to convey and reassure patients their outcome and experience will be on par with your own
