Eye Clinic at Mälarsjukhuset Eskilstuna
About Us
Region Sörmland's eye clinic is a regional clinic with outpatient services at three hospitals in Sörmland: Kullbergska sjukhuset in Katrineholm (KSK), Mälarsjukhuset (MSE) in Eskilstuna, and Nyköpings lasarett (NLN) in Nyköping. We handle approximately 60,000 patient visits annually. We perform cataract surgeries, outpatient procedures, and strabismus surgery. We also provide outpatient services for medical retina, glaucoma, and other chronic diagnostic groups. Our patient population ranges from small children to seniors. We also operate an on-call emergency service where our physicians are on standby at home. For highly specialized care needs, we refer patients to Örebro Universitetssjukhus.
We are now seeking an ophthalmologist/chief physician for the Eye Clinic in Eskilstuna. At the clinic, you will work with modern equipment and collaborate with various professions. We have implemented significant task shifting. For example, anti-VEGF injections are administered by nurses.
