Senior Physician Liaison

Headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, EyeSouth Partners is a premier network of integrated eye care practices located throughout the country. Our affiliated ophthalmology practices benefit from superior operational expertise, as well as investments in support staff, ongoing education, and state-of-the-art technology.

We began EyeSouth Partners with a clear vision: to be the leading provider of medical and surgical eye care services in the Southeast with an absolute focus on high-quality patient care and service.

Supported by a world-class Board of Directors and robust administrative and operations infrastructure, we enable EyeSouth-affiliated ophthalmologist partners to unlock their practice’s full potential.

We are currently expanding our network through organic growth and partnership with additional high-quality practices and ophthalmologists throughout the country. https://www.eyesouthpartners.com/

As a Senior Physician Liaison, you will lead, coach, and scale our physician liaison program across multiple ophthalmology markets. This is a senior leadership role with enterprise-level visibility and accountability, responsible for setting direction, building consistency, developing talent, and driving measurable growth through strong physician relationships and an exceptional referral experience.

This role partners closely with affiliate leadership, clinical teams, and corporate marketing to ensure outreach efforts are aligned, disciplined, and impactful. The Senior Physician Liaison serves as the voice of the field—bringing market insight, physician feedback, and referral trends back to leadership to inform strategy, improve access, and enhance patient care.

This is not an individual contributor role. Success is defined by the performance of the team, the strength of physician partnerships, and the organization’s ability to grow while staying grounded in service, integrity, and patient-first care.
