Job Description

Job Title: Associate Veterinarian
Location: Knoxville, TN | Multiple Opportunities Available Nationwide

 

A well-established privately owned small animal hospital is adding an Associate Veterinarian due to continued case growth.

This is a busy, collaborative practice where doctors see a wide range of cases and have strong technician support, allowing them to focus on practicing high-quality medicine rather than working through an assembly line.

Practice Snapshot

• 4+ doctor team with a stable, experienced support staff
• 2–3 technicians per doctor (including licensed technicians)
• Modern facility with full in-house diagnostics, digital radiography, ultrasound, and dedicated surgical suite
• Mix of wellness, internal medicine, surgery, dentistry, and urgent cases
• Consistent case demand — the hospital regularly books out and turns away same-day cases

Schedule

• Typically a 4-day work week
• Shared Saturday rotation (clinic closes early)
• No overnight or emergency shifts

Compensation

• ProSal compensation structure with strong earning potential
• Competitive base salary
• Production bonuses
• CE allowance and professional dues
• Health insurance and PTO

This role tends to appeal to veterinarians who enjoy varied cases, strong technician support, and practicing good medicine without excessive corporate oversight.

The practice is open to experienced veterinarians as well as confident new graduates.
