• Competitive compensation: Earn $120,000–$140,000 annually, with a sign-on bonus of up to $50,000.

• A flexible career path: Choose an associate role or work toward becoming Managing Veterinarian as your experience grows.

• New graduates welcome: Benefit from structured mentorship, supportive onboarding, and gradually increasing responsibility.

What You'll Find Here

Join an established small animal practice with a steady caseload and a healthy mix of medical and surgical cases. The current team includes two full-time veterinarians, two Certified Veterinary Technicians, and four veterinary assistants.

The practice emphasizes compassionate care, friendly client service, and collaboration. A strong doctor-to-technician and assistant support structure helps veterinarians focus on patient care, make sound clinical decisions, and continue developing their skills.

With the current leader preparing to transition out of the role, this is an opportunity for an experienced veterinarian to lead or for a developing veterinarian to grow toward leadership with support.
