At Hunter Veterinary Clinic, we believe great veterinary medicine is built on collaboration, curiosity, and continual learning. As a busy general practice with urgent care services, we enjoy the best of both worlds—developing lasting relationships through preventive care while caring for the unexpected medical and surgical cases that challenge us to keep learning. We don’t expect every veterinarian to know everything—we expect willingness to learn, ask questions, and help each other provide the best care possible. Whether you have been practicing for two years or twenty, we believe the best medicine comes from working together. We practice high‑quality, evidence‑based medicine while embracing a spectrum of care, recognizing that every family and every patient is different. Our goal is to partner with clients to develop thoughtful, ethical treatment plans that fit their goals, circumstances, and resources. We’re looking for a veterinarian who enjoys working as part of a collaborative team, values continual growth, and is excited to care for a remarkably diverse group of patients. A genuine interest in exotic animal medicine is required. A strong interest in surgery is highly desirable. Experienced veterinarians and motivated new graduates seeking mentorship are encouraged to apply. What You’ll Do Preventive and wellness care Internal medicine Urgent care Soft‑tissue surgery Dentistry Diagnostic imaging Exotic animal medicine Raptor and Corvid Rehabilitation (for those interested) Hospitalized medical and surgical case management Our patients include dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, birds, reptiles, small mammals, and raptors and corvids such as eagles, hawks, falcons, owls, ravens, and crows. Whether you’re seeing a routine wellness appointment or stabilizing a critically ill patient, you’ll practice thoughtful, high‑quality medicine with the support of an experienced team. Urgent Care We are not an emergency hospital, but every afternoon and the first Saturday of the month is designed around an urgent care model. Your daily caseload will include diagnosis and management of conditions such as diabetic ketoacidosis, pyometra, gastric foreign bodies, urinary obstruction, respiratory distress, toxicities, lacerations and trauma, acute gastrointestinal disease, seizures, and allergic reactions. Collaboration & Mentorship Medicine is a team sport. Challenging cases are discussed together, radiographs reviewed, surgical plans talked through, and we celebrate successes while supporting each other through difficult cases. Whether you are an experienced veterinarian seeking collaborative colleagues or a new graduate seeking meaningful mentorship, the team focuses on teaching, learning, and mutual support.
