Medical Director

Job Description

Job Description

Ready to shape how a veterinary team practices medicine—not just the cases on your own schedule?

You've built your clinical judgment through years of patient care. Now, imagine having a greater voice in medical decisions, helping other veterinarians grow, and improving the quality of care across a practice—without stepping away from the exam room.

This opportunity brings clinical medicine and leadership together, giving an experienced DVM the chance to influence team development, strengthen medical standards, and help guide the practice's clinical direction while continuing to treat patients.

What You'll Find Here

• Lead beyond your own caseload: Help guide medical decisions, reinforce thoughtful clinical standards, and identify opportunities to improve patient care.
• Make a difference in other doctors' careers: Mentor associate veterinarians, share clinical knowledge, and support their professional development.
• Stay connected to medicine: Continue practicing small animal medicine, including wellness care, preventive medicine, and surgery.
• Have a voice in the practice's direction: Partner with practice leadership on clinical priorities, team effectiveness, and ongoing medical improvement.
• Earn for your clinical work and leadership: Receive a base salary plus quarterly production, with no negative accrual, along with a dedicated Medical Director stipend.
• Maintain flexibility: Discuss scheduling options that support your professional priorities and responsibilities.

What You'll Be Doing

This is a hands-on leadership role, not simply a title added to your clinical workload. You'll help establish expectations for quality medicine, encourage consistency in clinical decision-making, coach fellow veterinarians, and work with practice leadership to address challenges and opportunities.

You'll also continue seeing patients, allowing you to lead through your own medical judgment and day-to-day collaboration. The aim is to give you meaningful influence over both patient care and the team delivering it.

Who Might Love This

This role may suit an experienced veterinarian ready to take the next step into medical leadership, as well as a current clinical leader seeking a position that keeps patient care central.

• DVM with a Florida license or eligibility to obtain one
• Previous leadership experience preferred
• Interest in mentoring colleagues, developing teams, and advancing medical quality
