A little bit about us:

VSC is the first and only employee-owned specialty and emergency hospital in Illinois and only the second in the entire country! We have over 330 employees at our only location, which is about 40 minutes just outside of Chicago in Bannockburn, IL. We are extremely collaborative and foster a very active learning environment for our staff, residents, interns, and externs. Our specialties include surgery, rehabilitation and integrative medicine, internal medicine, emergency and critical care, anesthesia and pain management, radiology, neurology, oncology (medical and radiation), cardiology, dermatology, nephrology, and clinical pathology.

Join the fastest growing veterinary hospital and work alongside the most incredible team you could imagine; working side by side to provide unsurpassed patient care that is second to none. Veterinary Specialty Center was founded almost 50 years ago and has continued to be the industry leader in providing cutting-edge medicine in a kind and comforting environment.

Our hospital is a VECCS Level I facility and is one of only a few practices in the world to achieve LEVEL ONE Trauma Center Certification through ACVECC's Veterinary Committee on Trauma (VetCOT). We also believe in reinvesting in our team and referral community by offering the largest annual all-day free CE event in the Midwest on the topics that matter most. Additionally, we uniquely offer high-flow oxygen, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, hemodialysis, plasmapheresis, apheresis, brand new imaging modalities, and immunotherapy.

Top reasons why you should consider a career in the Midwest:

• Chicago is a big city with a lot of really fun things to do (museums, parks, restaurants, zoos, aquarium, shopping, concerts, volunteering, tours, etc.)
• Lots of breathing room if that's your vibe (parks, beaches, forests, camping, suburbs, and plenty of space for dogs, chickens, goats, etc.)
• We're community-oriented and healthier for it (a University of Cambridge 2013 study assessed the personality traits of more than 1.5 million people and found that the personalities of Midwesterners had "moderately high levels of extraversion, agreeableness, and conscientiousness." So come on over, let's be friends!)
• The Midwest is less stressed (in 2020, WalletHub released data on the most and least stressed states with the Midwest leading as the least stressed. Laidback lifestyles, affordability, sense of communitythese could all be factors in the relatively low level of stress for Midwesterners.)
• We have not one, but two international airports. (Whether you need to quickly and easily visit friends, family or an exotic locale for a little rest and relaxation, we've got you covered!)
