Veterinarian

Southview Animal Hospital is seeking a General Practice Veterinarian to join one of the largest and most medically progressive small animal hospitals in Minnesota.

Southview offers a level of collaboration, case variety, medical support, and continuity of care that is difficult to find in traditional general practice. Our hospital is intentionally built to support patients throughout the full life of a pet, extending beyond routine wellness and preventive care with urgent care, advanced diagnostics, surgery, dentistry, 24-hour hospitalization support, and access to visiting specialists.

Why Doctors Choose Southview

Southview gives doctors the opportunity to build trusted, long-term client relationships while remaining closely involved as patients’ needs become more complex. With advanced diagnostics, experienced in-house colleagues, strong technical support, and specialists available for timely collaboration, our doctors are often able to diagnose, treat, and move cases forward efficiently while preserving continuity of care for the client and patient.

This is an ideal environment for a veterinarian who values relationship-driven general practice, enjoys medical variety, and wants the ability to practice high-quality medicine with strong hospital support.

What You’ll Have Access To

At Southview, doctors have access to:

• General practice, urgent care, or a blend of both
• Surgery and dentistry in large, newly remodeled suites
• Advanced onsite diagnostics, including ultrasound, CT, and endoscopic procedures
• Visiting specialist support, including cardiology, radiology, soft tissue surgery, and orthopedic surgery
• 24-hour hospitalization support to promote continuity of patient care
• Mentorship in small animal and exotic medicine
• A strong, experienced technician and support team
• Mentorship and development support both in-hospital and through NVA resources

Southview is an excellent opportunity for a veterinarian seeking variety, support, growth, and high-quality medicine without losing the relationship-centered foundation of general practice.

We welcome veterinarians interested in general practice, urgent care, or a blend of both. New graduates and experienced clinicians are encouraged to apply.

Compensation & Benefits

• Base salary: $100,000–$140,000 plus production, commensurate with experience
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• 401(k) with match
• Generous CE allowance
• Uniform allowance
• Access to mentorship and professional development resources, including PetOne Veterinary
• Additional benefits and support through NVA

Located in West St. Paul, Southview offers convenient access to the Twin Cities, restaurants, recreation, and community amenities. If you are seeking a role that offers support, flexibility, mentorship, and meaningful general practice medicine, we would love to connect.
