State Road Animal Hospital – Alma, Michigan

Looking for a place where you can practice great medicine and truly feel at home? State Road Animal Hospital has been a trusted part of Alma, Michigan for over 60 years, serving generations of families and their pets in a close‑knit Mid‑Michigan community.

Why Alma?

Alma offers small‑town charm with big advantages—affordable housing, minimal commutes, and easy access to lakes, trails, and outdoor recreation. It's an ideal spot for veterinarians looking for balance, community connection, and a slower pace without sacrificing professional fulfillment.

About the Practice

We're a modern hospital with updated facilities, advanced diagnostics, and a team‑first culture. Collaboration, mentorship, and work‑life balance are core to how we operate, and we take pride in being a place people love to work.

The Role
  • Provide wellness exams, diagnostics, and soft tissue surgery
  • Deliver compassionate, high‑quality medical care
  • Build lasting relationships with Alma's pet‑loving community
  • Collaborate with and mentor an experienced support team
What We're Looking For
  • DVM from an AVMA‑accredited program
  • Michigan license (or eligibility)
  • Team‑oriented, compassionate, and eager to grow
  • New grads and experienced veterinarians encouraged to apply

BENEFITS & SUPPORT:

  • Compensation: $135,000–$165,000 base salary
    • Additional Earnings: Bonus opportunities + production pay
  • Paid Time Off
  • Medical, Vision, and Dental Insurance
  • Short- & Long-Term Disability
  • Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
  • Paid Parental Leave
  • 401K with company match
  • Paid Licensure and Dues
  • VIN Membership
  • CE Allowance with additional paid days to end CE events
  • Uniform Allowance
  • And so much more!

If you're ready to build a rewarding veterinary career in the heart of Alma , we'd love to connect.
