Associate Veterinarian

Job Description

Introduction
Our client is a non-profit hospital hiring for an Associate Veterinarian to join their team on either a full-time or part-time basis. The hospital sees cats and dogs and offers the full scope of general practice services in a supportive and well-organized environment.

Role Description and Responsibilities
This role involves the full scope of GP responsibilities, including wellness / preventative care, internal medicine, surgery, dentistry, and general day-to-day case management. A non-surgery caseload is also available for doctors who would prefer not to perform surgery. The position is ideally suited to a veterinarian with 1 or more years of DVM experience who is confident seeing appointments independently, although mentorship in soft-tissue surgery is available for those looking to further develop their surgical skills. Full-time doctors work 38–40 hours across four weekdays with no weekends required, while part-time scheduling is open to discussion.

Practice Details
The hospital operates Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 8am–6pm, and Wednesday from 8am–5pm, remaining closed on weekends. The 6000sqft facility includes five exam rooms, three isolation rooms, a dedicated euthanasia room, and two surgical suites. The practice is equipped with dental x-ray, digital x-ray, a state-of-the-art ultrasound, IDEXX in-house labs, Cornerstone EMR, therapy laser, dental tools, an oxygen scavenger system, and AI scribe technology. Some team members are Cat Friendly Certified and FearFree certified. The hospital provides the full scope of GP services alongside in-hour emergencies and is open to expanding services for doctors with experience in additional areas of interest. Appointment scheduling is structured with 15-minute routine and vaccine appointments and 30-minute medical appointments.

Team
The team consists of one permanent doctor supported by a large and consistent relief doctor team, alongside three technicians, three assistants, two reception staff members, one kennel attendant, and a practice manager. The hospital maintains a 3:1 staff-to-doctor ratio and is known for its organized workflow and supportive atmosphere. The support staff are confident and experienced, allowing doctors to focus on practicing medicine while working within a collaborative and positive environment where the team genuinely enjoys coming to work.
