Associate Veterinarian - General Practice - Part Time

This veterinarian-owned animal hospital in Bothell, Washington is hiring for an Associate Veterinarian to join its established and community-focused team. Serving the local area for more than 60 years, the practice is entering an exciting new chapter with the opening of a brand-new, state-of-the-art hospital scheduled for Summer 2026. As part of a locally owned five-hospital group with no outside investors or corporate ownership, the practice offers genuine clinical autonomy, strong mentorship, and the opportunity to pursue individual interests while helping expand services within the hospital. This opportunity is open to both experienced veterinarians and new graduates seeking a supportive environment with long-term career development.

The Associate Veterinarian will provide comprehensive medical, surgical, and preventative care for canine and feline patients, including wellness care, diagnostics, dentistry, surgery, and client communication. Full-time veterinarians typically work four 10-hour shifts per week with shared weekend responsibilities and dedicated surgery days incorporated into the schedule. The practice actively encourages doctors to develop additional clinical interests and services, helping to enhance patient care while reducing the need for referrals. Veterinarians with an interest in surgery will have access to mentorship from an experienced surgeon, while new graduates benefit from a tailored mentorship programme featuring dedicated mentors, gradual onboarding, shadowing opportunities, dental continuing education, and structured clinical development based on individual needs and experience levels. Non-surgical veterinarians are also encouraged to apply. This progressive small animal hospital provides care exclusively for dogs and cats and is currently completing construction of a brand-new hospital situated on more than an acre of land in Bothell. The practice is equipped with digital radiography, dental radiography, ultrasound, Class IV laser therapy, in-house laboratory equipment, electronic medical records, and EzyVet practice management software. Appointments are scheduled for 30 minutes, allowing veterinarians the time needed to practise thorough medicine and build meaningful client relationships. The hospital is open Monday through Saturday from 8:00am to 6:00pm and is closed on Sundays, supporting a healthy work-life balance. The hospital currently has a team of five veterinarians supported by experienced licensed veterinary technicians, veterinary assistants, and support staff committed to delivering exceptional patient care. As part of a veterinarian-owned group, leadership prioritises supporting the professional growth of every team member while fostering an ego-free environment where ideas are shared openly, learning is encouraged, and veterinarians are trusted to practise high-quality medicine with strong support from their colleagues.
