Now Hiring! Full-Time Associate Veterinarian

Valley Animal Hospital in Clifton, NJ is looking for a full time associate veterinarian to join our staff in our busy small animal, AAHA certified hospital. We are not a corporate owned practice and the owner/hospital director greatly values the input of associate veterinarians in to the way the practice is run. You get to practice high quality medicine and not worry about upselling clients wellness packages or memberships.

Your colleagues will give you all the encouragement and help you want, without stifling your ability to make decisions on your own

We are a well equipped hospital with Idexx blood machines, digital radiology (including dental), surgical laser, extracorporeal shockwave and therapeutic laser. We have a highly skilled, experienced nursing staff that allows the doctor to practice medicine and not have to draw all their own lab samples, take radiographs or put in IV catheters. Ultrasounds are performed by a consulting mobile service. We are a paperless practice using ezyVet software. The practice owner is certified in canine rehabilitation, and we have an active rehabilitation department. The chance to become certified in rehabilitation is possible for those with an interest and dedication.

After hours emergencies are referred to one of the four local speciality/emergency hospitals within a 20 minute drive from our facility. You will be paid a generous base salary ($120,000 - $150,000) plus bonuses based on production. There is no negative accrual in regards to the production bonus. Twenty five days of vacation, time off for continuing education, health insurance, association dues, retirement account, veterinary license fees, VIN membership and discounted pet care are all part of the compensation package.

The work schedule is four days a week, with the same weekday off every week. You will share Saturday appointments on a rotating basis with the other associates. Veterinarians must have, or be eligible for, a New Jersey State Veterinary license and controlled drug licenses. Experience is preferred, but I am more than willing to mentor a new or recent graduate. We are looking for someone to start immediately, but are willing to wait for the right person.
