Job description
Introduction
Our client is a locally and family-owned veterinary hospital seeking an Associate Veterinarian to join their team, ideally on a full-time basis, although they are open to discussing different working arrangements. Providing care for cats and dogs, the hospital has been serving its community for around 50 years and has built a strong reputation for veterinary care. The hospital is part of a network of three locations, including a hybrid emergency hospital and a general practice location. Role Description and Responsibilities
As an Associate Veterinarian, you will diagnose and treat patients, perform surgical and dental procedures, develop appropriate care plans, and provide client education. Building and maintaining strong relationships with clients is an important part of the role, ensuring owners feel informed and involved throughout their pet's care. Doctors work either an early shift from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm or a later shift from 12:00 pm to 8:00 pm. Saturdays are worked every other week, with doctors then receiving a three-day weekend. The hospital is open to discussing scheduling preferences and seeing what works for both the incoming veterinarian and the team. The opportunity is open to both experienced veterinarians and new graduates. Mentorship can be provided for newer doctors, while more experienced clinicians will have opportunities for continued career and skill development.
Practice Details
The hospital is open Monday to Friday from 7:00 am to 8:00 pm and Saturdays from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, with the hospital closed on Sundays.
