Job Description

Want a veterinary career that gives you time to enjoy life outside the clinic without putting your professional growth on hold?

This opportunity in the Pacific Northwest offers a combination that's hard to overlook: a four-day work week, no on-call duties, a varied medical caseload, and support for veterinarians at different career stages.

You can focus on practicing medicine, strengthen your diagnostic and surgical skills, and build lasting client relationships. Whether you're a new graduate looking for guidance or an experienced DVM ready for a better routine, this role is worth exploring.

What You'll Find Here

• A schedule with breathing room: Work four days per week without on-call responsibilities.
• Clinical variety: Choose a small animal focus or explore mixed animal medicine, depending on your interests.
• Support that helps you practice: Work alongside trained veterinary support professionals so you can focus on medical decisions and patient care.
• Room to grow: New graduates are welcome, and continuing education supports ongoing professional development.
• An attractive earning structure: Base salary plus production incentives, with a signing bonus available.
• Help with relocation: Relocation assistance is offered, with potential interview travel reimbursement for eligible candidates.

What You'll Be Doing

Expect a broad general practice caseload spanning wellness, preventive medicine, diagnostics, dentistry, soft tissue surgery, and more involved medical cases. Mixed animal opportunities may also be available for veterinarians interested in expanding beyond companion animals.

Diagnostic resources include in-house laboratory testing, digital imaging, dental radiography, and ultrasound. Additional treatment options support a range of patient needs.
