Medical Director, Boston Veterinary Care

Medical Director Opportunity At Boston Veterinary Care

Boston Veterinary Care (BVC) is seeking a full-time Medical Director to join our team in Boston's historic South End.

BVC is more than a great place to practice medicine - we're the neighborhood vet that gives back. As part of the Animal Rescue League of Boston (ARL), we offer the same comprehensive services as any top-tier clinic, with one important difference: 100% of our proceeds go directly to helping animals in need. Every client visit funds ARL's shelter and community programs. When you practice at BVC, your work stretches beyond the exam room.

What practicing and leadership here looks like:

You'll work in a busy, well-supported hospital with a diverse caseload that includes wellness care, sick visits, dentistry, surgery, and diagnostic workups. You'll partner closely with experienced technicians and support staff who allow you to stay focused on practicing medicine.

We're structured to keep the work engaging without being overwhelming. There are no on-call or overnight responsibilities, allowing for a more sustainable schedule.

As the Medical Director, you'll provide leadership and mentorship to a team of Veterinarians and Technicians, while guiding the clinic's medical practice.

A space designed for how you actually practice:

ARL is building a brand-new, three-story, state-of-the-art facility at our current South End location, set to open in early 2027. BVC will occupy its own dedicated space on the third floor of the new building, including:

• Separate entrance and private elevator access
• Dedicated client parking
• New, modern equipment
• Two surgical suites
• Private euthanasia space designed with both families and care teams in mind

The building will also house ARL's Boston adoption center, new Shelter & Community Veterinary spaces, dog training, humane education, and pet owner support services. It represents a major investment in ARL's Boston home - bringing our work together in a way our current space no longer allows - and you'd be joining the team before that transition in a critical leadership role, helping shape what comes next.

What we offer:

• Base compensation ranging from $140,000 (for 32 hours per week) to $175,000 (for 40 hours per week) annually
• Schedule options for 32 hours per week or 40 hours per week
• No on-call or overnight responsibilities
• 22% quarterly production bonus with no negative accrual
• CE allowance and paid CE time
• Reimbursement for licensure, DEA, and professional dues
• Medical, dental, vision, and life insurance upon hire
• Immediate eligibility for 403(b) retirement plan with 3% employer match
• Eligibility for Public Service Loan Forgiveness
• Paid time off including vacation, sick, personal days, and holidays
• Pet care discounts and reimbursement
• Free off-street parking and MBTA commuter benefits

If this sounds like the kind of practice you've been looking for, we'd love to talk.
