Optometry & Ophthalmology Loans

A Financing Partner Who Shares Your Vision

As your ophthalmology business grows, and your number of patients increase, so do the number of hats that you wear. Don’t let these extra hats, like finding a larger work space or figuring out your financing options distract you from your primary job – providing the highest quality eye care to your patients.

When you’re ready to expand your optometry or ophthalmology practice, purchase real estate or acquire a new building, you need a financing partner that can share your vision. Live Oak’s healthcare financing team are experts in medical practice financing. We understand the ins and outs of your business, so you don’t have to waste time explaining the retail side of an Optometry practice or why so much working capital might be needed for the Medicare accreditation process for an Ophthalmology practice. We can help Optometry and Ophthalmology practice owners grow their business through construction, expansion, acquisition, real estate financing and more. Find out what it’s like to work with a bank who can see what you see: a thriving future.
