Associate Veterinarian - Small Animal
Heritage Vet Partners
Veterinary Position at Animal Medical Centers – Spencer
Animal Medical Centers – Spencer is a well-established mixed animal practice in Northwest Iowa, part of a 10-doctor team that values quality medicine, teamwork, and strong community relationships. While the practice sees a full mix of species, this role is dedicated exclusively to small animal medicine — giving you the space to build and grow that caseload rather than working it in around other cases.
Associates also benefit from mentorship and case collaboration with veterinarians at our Hartley and Sheldon locations, expanding your support network well beyond our own clinic.
You'll be working alongside:

- Dr. Aaron Nystrom (Minnesota '10) – Hartley, IA
- Dr. Katie Paulus (Iowa State '11) – Hartley, IA
- Dr. Lisa Yeske-Livermore (Iowa State '15) – Hartley, IA
- Dr. Sandra Schmith (Iowa State '87) – Sheldon, IA
- Dr. Rebecca Cuperus (Minnesota '03) – Sheldon, IA
- Dr. Megan Klein (Iowa State '24) – Sheldon, IA
About This Role
- Provide comprehensive medical, surgical, and preventive care for small animal patients
- Utilize in-house diagnostics, digital radiography, and therapeutic equipment to form accurate treatment plans
- Collaborate closely with a well-trained, experienced support staff
- Maintain strong communication and build lasting relationships with a loyal client base
- DVM or VMD degree required; active Iowa veterinary license, or eligibility to obtain one prior to start date
About You
- Open to both experienced veterinarians and motivated new graduates looking for strong mentorship
- Dedicated to team collaboration and high-quality patient care
- Comfortable building lasting relationships with clients and colleagues
- Excited by the opportunity to help shape and grow a dedicated small animal service line
