Join a Team Where You Can Practice Great Medicine-and Enjoy Your Life Both Inside and Outside of Work
Do you want to leave the office at 5pm? Does working with a well-established support staff that wants to please you sound appealing? Do you enjoy slightly inappropriate humor in the workplace? Come join our team at Paws and Perches Animal Hospital in Lake Wales, Florida!
We're seeking a compassionate and motivated Associate Veterinarian to join our growing small and exotic (optional) animal practice.
Why Join Us?
Paws and Perches is a privately owned small animal and exotic practice. I'm Dr. Ashley Lab, the owner since 2012. I am currently a solo practitioner and am looking forward to the comradery of working with another vet, sharing ideas and learning from one another.
We schedule our appointments to allow you time to connect with your clients and patients. We work hard, support one another, laugh often, and make sure everyone gets home on time.
We know our clients and patients by name and they know us. And we are always willing to grow and adapt to make patient care the best it can be!
