Join Our Practice · For Physicians

Practise at the depth you trained for.

U Vision Group was founded by surgeons who wanted to build the practice they themselves would want to join — deep specialty focus, a connected team, real research, and the operational efficiency to give patients timely, excellent care. If that sounds like where you belong, let’s talk.

Physician to physician

Built by surgeons, for the way you want to practise.

Most groups ask you to fit into their structure. We built ours around the things that actually matter to a clinician: practising in your true subspecialty, working alongside experts in every adjacent field, and having the systems and support that let you focus on patients rather than logistics.

U Vision Group’s co-founders, Dr. Eric Tam and Dr. Sohel Somani, were among the first in the province to adopt electronic medical records, are pioneers in digital and AI integration, and established the first purpose-built ophthalmic ambulatory surgery centre to be fully certified by the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario. The same drive shapes the environment you’d join.

Why practise here

A practice worth joining.

True subspecialty focus

Practise in the field you trained for, not five fields at once. Each brand goes deep — and you go deep with it, which is better for you and far better for patients.

An integrated team

Glaucoma, retina, cornea, oculoplastics, refractive, dry eye, optometry, surgery — all coordinated. Warm internal referrals mean your patients get the right colleague, fast, and you’re never carrying a case outside your scope alone.

Research & AI culture

Join a group that generates evidence — more than 300 peer-reviewed papers across the network and pioneering work in AI and surgical innovation. Bring your research interests; there’s a platform for them here.

A surgical centre built for flow

Our CPSO-certified ambulatory surgery centre is engineered for efficiency — which means less friction for you and faster, timely access for your patients. It’s a model clinicians travel from across Canada to study.

Partnership, not a role

We recruit colleagues, not headcount. You’ll have autonomy in your clinical practice and a real voice in how the group evolves, with the infrastructure of a network behind you.

Teaching & mentorship

University-affiliated and built on a teaching culture. Whether you want to mentor trainees, pursue a fellowship interest, or sharpen your craft alongside leaders in the field, there’s room to grow.

The model

You focus on patients. The network handles the rest.

Running a modern practice has never been more demanding. At UVG, the operational weight — scheduling, records, billing infrastructure, surgical logistics, technology — is carried by a network built for it, so your energy goes where it should: clinical care and outcomes.

It’s a structure designed to reduce burnout, not add to it — and to let every gain in efficiency translate into more timely, higher-quality care for the patients who depend on you.

Clinical autonomy

You lead your clinical practice; the group supports it.

Modern infrastructure

EMR, digital and AI tools, and a purpose-built surgical centre.

Coordinated care

Shared records and warm referrals across every subspecialty.

Multiple locations

Practise across the Greater Toronto Area, with a fifth site opening in 2027.

Research support

A real platform for the academic side of your career.

Opportunities

Ways to join.

Partnership

For ophthalmologists and optometrists ready to build a long-term practice within an integrated, research-led network — with autonomy and a stake in how it grows.

Flexible arrangements for experienced clinicians who want to contribute across our sites without a full commitment.

Mentorship-rich pathways in select subspecialties for clinicians building their expertise alongside leaders in the field.
