If you’re looking for a practice where every day consists of vaccines, ear infections, and squeezing 25 appointments into a schedule, this probably isn’t the right fit. If you’re looking for a hospital where you can grow, be challenged, develop your interests, and practice a higher level of medicine alongside an experienced team—while maintaining a life outside of work—keep reading. Summerfields Animal Hospital is a privately owned, AAHA‑accredited hospital that has served the North Fort Worth community for more than 20 years. We are seeking an Associate Veterinarian to join our multi‑doctor team as we continue to grow. Your Schedule, Your Choice We recognize that veterinarians are looking for flexibility, and we believe one schedule does not fit everyone. Consistent schedule with predictable days off Every other weekend off Dedicated weekly surgical block for every doctor Strong technician utilization and support Collaborative multi‑doctor environment Mentorship for new graduates Professional growth opportunities for experienced doctors Established clientele that value diagnostics and quality medicine Privately owned , doctor‑led practice Choose either a 3‑day or 4‑day work week.

Exotics & Reproduction Most general practices see dogs and cats. We do too. But we also maintain active services in two areas that are increasingly difficult to find in private practice. Exotic Animal Medicine Rabbits Guinea pigs Ferrets Reptiles Backyard poultry Waterfowl Other companion exotics Pocket Pets Fish Reproductive Medicine In‑house Progesterone testing Breeding management Artificial insemination Semen evaluation Semen freezing Fertility evaluations Pregnancy diagnosis Reproductive consultations For veterinarians interested in reproduction, Summerfields offers a level of hands‑on experience rarely found in traditional general practice.

We invest heavily in our support staff so our doctors can focus on patient care, diagnostics, surgery, communication, and case management. We maintain a collaborative environment where questions are encouraged, ideas are welcomed, and no one is expected to practice on an island. The Clients Our clients are loyal, engaged, and invested in their pets. They pursue diagnostics. They value recommendations. They trust their veterinarians. That allows our doctors to practice medicine rather than constantly defend it.
