Built By Someone Who...
Has Been There & Done That.

I'm John Martinelli. I've spent 38 years in the private practice my father started back in 1965 - with a little MD detour 22 years in. I was also an ocular disease preceptor for the Pennsylvania College of Optometry for nearly 15 years before entering medical school. I personally helped train dozens of optometrists along the way.

In that time I've watched many excellent ODs take the wrong position, and many great practices bring on the wrong candidate. Almost never because either one was careless. Because they simply didn't have time to first understand if it was a good fit.

And some ODs who would have been perfect for your practice have a position already. If they want a new opportunity, it's much more difficult to act on it under the umbrella of their current practice. So they stay where they are - many unsatisfied. Meanwhile, you still can't find anyone.

That's a visibility problem. It's a matching problem we're going to solve.

The ODBridge reverse model isn't speculative. Nursing already did it - building profiles with hospitals applying to them - a huge resource has been built. Eye care has job listings, schools, and expensive headhunters. Eye care has nothing which runs the other way. So we're building it.
