In their own words
About the company & team
ophthalmology:
Ophthalmology at the Alkmaar and Den Helder locations together forms one ophthalmic practice for Noordwest. You will work together with ophthalmologists, optometrists, orthoptists, technical ophthalmic assistants, nurses, and outpatient clinic assistants. The work takes place during regular office hours on weekdays, meaning you benefit from an attractive work schedule without evening, night, or weekend shifts.
Deborah: "What certainly stands out at the Noordwest ophthalmology outpatient clinic is the low threshold between colleagues. Everyone is willing to help another and you can go to all colleagues with questions or comments. The atmosphere among each other is very cozy; for example, colleagues regularly meet up outside of working hours for a drink.''
