Job description
Overview
Short Term Stay Veterinarian
Department: General Practice Hospitals
Employment Type: Temporary
Location: Lineberger Veterinary Hospital
Reporting To: Dana Joyce
Description
Ready to elevate your career? Lineberger Veterinary Hospital is excited to add you as an Short Term Stay Veterinarian. Our team located in Gastonia, North Carolina prides themselves on their collaborative culture that integrates a variety of medical and surgical cases (routine spays and neuters, abdominal surgeries, mass removals, eye and ear surgeries, and many more!), while supporting you in your professional aspirations.
This is an ideal role for:
Full time W2 doctors looking for a location change, a change of pace, or are looking to be reenergized.
Relief doctors looking for a little more stability without the full time leash.
Seasoned veterinarians looking to slow down without stepping away – keeping clinical skills sharp while traveling, mentoring younger teams, or finding renewed energy in the profession.
A doctor who wants flexibility to travel or ability to "try before you buy" without the leash of a noncompete.
What Makes This Opportunity Special
Built-In Flexibility: Choose the locations and time periods that work for your life. Whether you want extended breaks between assignments or back-to-back opportunities, we support your timeline.
Housing, Travel and Onboarding Supported: Travel costs and short-term housing are covered with our monthly stipend. This allows you to focus on what you do best—providing excellent care.
Strong Compensation & Benefits: Competitive daily rate pay that reflects your experience. No need to set up your own LLC or work through a third party relief agency, you'll be paid as a W2 employee, which can help to simplify your lift during tax season. You're also eligible for benefits like 401k match, pet care discount, and PLIT coverage.
Clinical Focus, No Admin: Step away from day-to-day management responsibilities and operational logistics. This role is designed for veterinarians who want to practice medicine—not manage spreadsheets.
Support for Life’s Transitions: Whether you’re easing into retirement, returning to clinical work after time away, or simply exploring a new pace, this role offers the flexibility and support to meet you where you are, professionally and personally.
The Best of the Best: State-of-the-art equipment: digital x-ray, cold/therapy laser, and more!
