Get Matched.
A Reverse Marketplace For Eyecare.
No more old-school job listings & headhunters. Build your profile.
ODBridge created by John R. Martinelli, OD, MD - founder of Ophthalmic Physician - 38 years private practice and more OD hires than he can count.
The Problem
Hiring in eyecare is backwards
A practice posts a position and waits. OD's scrolling online job boards & school posts never see it. Expensive headhunters nobody wants to pay. And who knows if it will work out.
So the perfect candidate can't find the perfect opportunity. Maybe even stopped looking and gave up. Perhaps already in practice and not happy.
Neither one can find the other - so both settle for less than they deserve.
The Fix
Let's Reverse It.
The doctor creates an anonymous and private profile. No name, no current practice, no direct contact details.
Practices describe and submit their open position. ODBridge matches. Practices apply to the anonymous profile.
Nothing is revealed until the doctor says yes. The doctor controls the reveal - every time.
Two Sides. Two Deals.
Reduce the risk. Free for doctors. Affordable for practices.
For Doctors
- Free. Always. Doctors never pay.
- Anonymous. Completely private. Your name & current practice stay hidden.
- One profile. Not 20 applications. Just a couple minutes to become matchable.
- Decline in one click. No explanation necessary. Declining does not reveal your details.
For Practices
- Reach doctors easily. A huge advantage - listings can't do this.
- Flat affordable fee AFTER a successful match & placement.
- 90 day trial period. 50% at start. 50% balance only if position kept at day 90 - or it's waived.
- First 10 practices pay the founding fee. Locked for 12 months.
What It Costs
Recruiters take a HIGH percentage. We have an affordable flat fee.
Contingency recruiters typically take 15–25% of first-year salary. Against the national median optometrist wage of $134,830, that's approximately $20,225 to $33,708 for a placement.
Our fee is a fraction of that because our model is very different.
Typical recruiter. One placement.
$20,225–33,708
90-Day Trial
50% at the start. 50% at day 90.
First half due on your new OD's confirmed start date. Balance at day 90 — waived entirely if they're not keeping the position.
No Fee Until Start Date.
