Urgent Care Veterinarian

Want to keep your medicine varied without committing to overnight emergency coverage?
This opportunity in the greater Austin area combines urgent care, general practice, and surgery in a role built around a more predictable schedule.

You’ll see patients who need timely attention, handle wellness and sick visits, and perform appropriate urgent procedures. The caseload includes walk-ins alongside scheduled appointments, giving you variety while allowing you to focus on cases that can be managed outside a traditional emergency hospital.

What Could Make This a Better Move

• More variety in your day. Balance preventive care, illness appointments, walk-ins, and urgent medical cases.

• Surgical opportunities. Perform urgent procedures and routine soft-tissue surgery within the scope of the practice.

• No overnight coverage. Focus on daytime and evening clinical work without overnight shifts.

• A more structured routine. The role offers a predictable schedule, with time off intended to be respected.

• Work with a clinical team. Collaborate with fellow veterinarians and trained technical staff on patient care.

• Support continuity of care. Coordinate with primary-care veterinarians so patients can return to their regular doctors for ongoing treatment.

What You’ll Be Doing

This small-animal urgent care and general practice treats non-life-threatening emergencies, wellness needs, acute illnesses, and chronic conditions. Cases may include wounds, lameness, gastrointestinal concerns, ear infections, urinary issues, and selected urgent surgical conditions. The practice also accepts appropriate referrals when primary-care clinics cannot accommodate patients quickly enough.

Who Might Love This

This role could suit a veterinarian who enjoys problem-solving and surgery but prefers to avoid overnight emergency work. It may also appeal to a general practitioner looking for a broader mix of cases or a clinician who values collaboration and continuity with referring veterinarians.

A DVM, VMD, or equivalent degree is required, along with an appropriate state veterinary license and DEA eligibility.
