Emergency Veterinarian - Ethos ER Immerse Mentorship Program Austin, TX

Austin Veterinary Emergency and Specialty Center is seeking veterinarians passionate about working in emergency medicine for our 6-month training and mentorship program. We are looking for individuals who are team oriented, driven, reflective, and reliable to train with us and transition into an ER position at AVES.

Austin Veterinary Emergency & Specialty (AVES) is a premier 24/7 specialty and emergency hospital where collaboration, innovation, and mentorship drive exceptional patient care. Practice alongside board-certified specialists in a state-of-the-art 45,000-square-foot facility featuring advanced technology, dedicated ICU and surgical spaces, and Ethos Veterinary Health's first on-site research program. Whether you're an experienced ER veterinarian or beginning your emergency career through our ER Immerse program, AVES offers an outstanding environment to learn, grow, and make a lasting impact while enjoying everything Austin has to offer.

The ER Immerse Program will prepare veterinarians for a sustainable and satisfying career in emergency medicine. Built from the ground up to be different than traditional rotating internship programs, the ERi program has been developed around a curriculum of core competencies essential for an emergency veterinarian. In addition to providing training around clinical knowledge and skills, the program also includes a focus on client and team member communication, professional skills, and life/work integration.

The ER Immerse program utilizes a hybrid training approach incorporating simulation-based didactic components into authentic training experiences with live patients. The curriculum is designed using an evidence-based strategy identifying competencies and skills deemed essential for a successful career as an emergency clinician.

Applications are accepted year-round; however, mentorship positions are limited. To maximize your chances of securing a placement, we recommend submitting your application by November 1st. Applications received after this date will be considered as opportunities remain available.

Work authorization in the United States is a requirement for the position. This position is not eligible for visa sponsorship by the company, but candidates eligible for TN status may be considered.
