Veterinarian

Job Description

Are you a Veterinarian with a dream of owning your own clinic? This is a rare opportunity to lead a state-of-the-art, small-animal hospital in San Antonio, TX!

This long-standing, privately-owned hospital in San Antonio is offering a rare opportunity: step into a Medical Director role with full clinical autonomy and a clear, supported pathway to complete ownership of the practice.

For more than 30 years, this full-service hospital has been a trusted presence in its community. With a loyal, multi-generational client base and a diverse medical offering, the clinic is ready to welcome a new leader who can guide its next chapter—whether that means modernizing services, expanding caseloads, or preparing to take over the reins entirely.

The hospital manages a wide variety of cases each day, including preventative and internal medicine, dentistry, surgery, urgent care, walk-in emergencies, and even pocket pets and exotics. The on-site boarding and grooming offerings help sustain long-term relationships with clients and ensure a steady, predictable caseload.

Inside, you’ll find four spacious exam rooms, a dedicated surgical suite, digital radiology, and the ability to integrate new technology of your choosing. Appointments typically run 8:30 am - 6 pm Monday through Friday with optional rotating Saturdays. You’ll be supported by an experienced team of technicians, kennel staff, receptionists, and both a practice and hospital manager—providing the operational stability you need to focus on leadership and medicine.

This is the ideal opportunity for a veterinarian seeking clinical freedom, a respected leadership position, and a genuine, structured pathway to practice ownership in the very near future.

Key Highlights:

• Long-standing, privately owned small-animal hospital with 30+ years serving the community
• True Medical Director role with full clinical decision-making authority

• Loyal client base with 20–30 patients per day and strong community presence
• Excellent tech-to-DVM ratio with a supportive, experienced team

• Flexible scheduling, ideally four days per week with rotating Saturday mornings
