Urgent Care Veterinarian

Job Description

Job Description

Enjoy the challenge of urgent care medicine, but ready for a schedule that doesn't revolve around overnight emergencies?

If you thrive on clinical variety, enjoy making medical decisions, and want to keep developing your skills without sacrificing your personal time, this opportunity could be worth exploring. You'll practice small animal medicine in a setting that handles unscheduled patient needs, with opportunities to broaden your clinical experience and collaborate with fellow veterinarians.

Whether you're a newer DVM looking for guidance or an established clinician ready for a different pace, this role offers a combination of hands-on medicine, professional development, and a more manageable approach to scheduling.

What You'll Find Here

• Keep the clinical variety: Work through a changing mix of patient needs without committing to an overnight emergency schedule.
• Build confidence with support: Discuss cases, seek second opinions, and learn from experienced colleagues as you develop your approach to medicine.
• Focus on patient care: Veterinary technicians help with essential clinical tasks, including diagnostics, imaging, laboratory work, and anesthesia monitoring.
• Broaden your clinical skills: Explore opportunities across urgent care, surgery, dentistry, and diagnostic medicine.
• Make room for life outside work: A four-day workweek and scheduling flexibility offer the potential for a more sustainable routine.
• Find your next stage of growth: Develop professionally in a collaborative setting where learning remains part of the job.

What You'll Be Doing

This is a companion animal role combining urgent presentations with general medical care, diagnostic evaluation, and treatment. Clinical opportunities include preventive medicine, soft tissue procedures, dentistry, anesthesia and pain management, and diagnostic imaging.

Available resources include radiography, dental imaging, in-house laboratory testing, and ultrasound to help guide patient care.

Who Might Love This

• New graduates who want guidance while developing sound clinical judgment and practical skills.
• Experienced veterinarians who enjoy unpredictable cases but want an alternative to traditional overnight emergency work.
• Clinicians seeking variety who value teamwork, continued learning, and meaningful patient interactions.

The Basics

• Schedule: Full-time, four-day workweek, with scheduling flexibility.
• Experience: New graduates and experienced DVMs welcome.
• Licensure: Must hold or qualify for veterinary licensure in the relevant state.
• Compensation: Salary plus production.
• Additional incentives: Sign-on bonus and relocation assistance; temporary housing may be available.
• Benefits: Health, dental, and vision insurance; paid time off; continuing education allowance.
• Overnight coverage: No overnight shifts. Ask about specific daily hours and weekend expectations.

A Little About the Area

This opportunity is in a smaller-community setting in the northeastern United States, offering access to outdoor recreation and a less metropolitan pace of life. It may appeal to veterinarians looking for a community-oriented environment with opportunities to enjoy the outdoors while maintaining a fulfilling clinical career.
