Medical Director

Job Description

Job Description

Want to shape a veterinary team's medical standards without stepping away from patient care?

For an experienced veterinarian ready to broaden their impact, this opportunity offers a combination of clinical leadership, doctor mentorship, and hands-on small animal practice. You can help guide medical decision-making, support the development of other veterinarians, and contribute to practice improvement while continuing to see patients and perform procedures.

The appeal is the balance: a chance to influence how the team practices medicine without making leadership your only connection to the profession.

What You'll Find Here

• Lead through medicine: Help guide clinical standards and encourage thoughtful, evidence-based decisions across the veterinary team.
• Develop other doctors: Share your experience, mentor colleagues, and help veterinarians strengthen their clinical skills.
• Stay clinically engaged: Continue working with patients rather than moving into a role focused exclusively on administration.
• Have a voice in practice development: Partner with hospital leadership on medical quality, team growth, and day-to-day clinical improvement.
• Broaden your professional impact: Bring your perspective to team culture, collaboration, and the consistency of patient care.
• Receive additional leadership compensation: The package includes a medical leadership stipend alongside base pay and production-based earnings.

What You'll Be Doing

This is a small animal general practice role serving dogs and cats. Your clinical work may include preventive care, internal medicine, diagnostics, dentistry, and surgery, alongside client communication and treatment planning.

On the leadership side, you'll help mentor fellow veterinarians, support sound medical decision-making, and work with practice leadership to strengthen clinical standards and team development. The position is designed to keep you involved in patient care while giving you greater influence over the broader medical environment.

Who Might Love This

An experienced DVM who enjoys both practicing medicine and helping other veterinarians grow may find this especially appealing. At least five years of small animal clinical experience is preferred, along with prior leadership or mentoring experience. A Florida veterinary license, or eligibility to obtain one, is required.

The Basics

• Role: Full-time Medical Director Veterinarian
• Location: South Florida
• Compensation: Base salary plus production and a medical leadership stipend
• Additional incentives: Sign-on bonus and relocation assistance

• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• 401(k) with company match
