Founding Partner Veterinarian - Rancho Cordova

Your Impact as a Founding Partner & Lead Veterinarian

This is more than a leadership role; it's an opportunity to build and lead a practice with the full backing of an established network. As the Founding Partner & Lead Veterinarian, you will be the cornerstone of the new Livewell Animal Hospital in one of the most explosive residential and commercial growth sectors in the Sacramento metro area.

Construction is complete. The "Coming Soon" signs are up. And before we've even opened our doors, 126 local pet families have already joined our waitlist.

Operating in a newly constructed, premium multi-tenant retail footprint within the Anatolia Marketplace (at the heavily trafficked intersection of Sunrise Boulevard and Douglas Road), you will serve a booming, affluent demographic of suburban homeowners. Situated directly adjacent to Prospect Park, Sacramento's largest employment center, and flanked by the massive Sunridge Specific Plan adding over 20,000 homes to the immediate area, your practice is uniquely positioned to bridge the gap between high-end general medicine and urgent care. You will be the cornerstone of the hospital, responsible for establishing a gold-standard medical culture, mentoring your team, and driving the business's success as a true owner without the typical financial risks or overhead of building from scratch on your own

• Build a Thriving Practice Culture: You will be the architect of a client-first, collaborative culture, setting the tone for boutique-level medical excellence and teamwork from day one. In this highly anticipated commercial hub, serving discerning pet owners across Anatolia Village, Sunridge Park, and the surrounding master-planned communities, you will design a premium experience that builds a strong, fiercely loyal client base from day one.

• Lead and Mentor Your Medical Team: You will recruit, onboard, and develop your associate veterinarians and paraprofessional staff, fostering a team that is highly skilled, efficient, engaged, and deeply integrated into this rapidly expanding East Sacramento suburb.

• Drive Medical and Surgical Excellence: You will set and maintain the hospital's standard of care, ensuring the delivery of excellent patient care and providing mentorship in general surgery and dentistry. You will have the freedom and cutting-edge resources to practice high-end medicine in a spacious, modern facility tailored to your clinical vision, perfectly designed to meet the dual demand for boutique General Practice and Urgent Care.

• Partner in Business Ownership:  You will work directly with your Hospital Manager to manage the hospital’s financial performance, making strategic decisions that drive top-line revenue growth and long-term success. By positioning this hospital alongside premier neighborhood anchors like Raley's, Walgreens, and highly trafficked retail pads, you will leverage immense, recurring community foot traffic to accelerate rapid practice growth.

  What You'll Bring to the Team

  • Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) degree and a license in good standing to practice.
  • A minimum of 4+ years of experience as a veterinarian, with a strong foundation in general medicine, surgery, and dentistry.
  • A compassionate and collaborative leadership style with the ability to mentor and develop associate veterinarians and support staff.
  • An entrepreneurial spirit and a strong understanding of what it takes to run a successful practice.
  • Previous formal leadership or management experience is a significant plus.
