Technical Ophthalmic Assistant in the Netherlands

Are you a freelance TOA AND are you an expert at supporting various consultation hours?

In this varied TOA role, you will work closely with ophthalmologists, physician assistants, optometrists, orthoptists, other TOAs, and medical assistants at our modernly equipped Ophthalmology outpatient clinic.

Additionally, you will handle the administrative preparation of the ophthalmologists' consultation hours, support these consultation hours by responding adequately to the care needs, and manage your schedule around the ophthalmologist's consultation hours.
