Shape the Future of Outpatient Surgery: Join CVETS West Columbia!
Are you a Board-Certified Veterinary Surgeon or Residency-Trained Veterinarian ready for a different kind of specialty practice? CVETS is seeking a full-time Outpatient Specialty Surgeon to join our expanding West Columbia location- an innovative, outpatient-focused model designed for efficiency, collaboration, and exceptional patient care. This is a unique opportunity to focus on high-quality surgical care in a streamlined, outpatient environment- without the demands of overnight hospitalization.
Here’s how you’ll make a difference:
Deliver Expert Surgical Care: Perform orthopedic and non-complex soft tissue procedures in a modern, state-of-the-art outpatient setting
Own the Case Journey: Manage cases from consultation through discharge with a same-day or short-stay focus
Collaborate Across Services: Partner closely with Urgent Care, Internal Medicine, and Oncology teams on-site
Leverage System-Wide Expertise: Work in sync with our Northeast 24-hour emergency and specialty hospital and a VECCS Level 1 Certified Facility, supported by 15+ specialists across Neurology, Radiology, Cardiology, and Critical Care
Innovate the Model: Help shape and refine outpatient surgical workflows in a growing and evolving practice
Why This Role Stands Out
No Overnight Hospitalization Requirements – Focus on efficient, high-quality surgical care
Built-In Referral Base – Strong case flow from urgent care and emergency services
Best of Both Worlds – Enjoy the pace of outpatient practice with the backing of a full-scale specialty hospital
Growth & Leadership Opportunity – Play a key role in developing a modern outpatient specialty model
