The hospital is modeled after best practices in human medicine with five core principles: quality, compassion, service, innovation, and partnership.  Our mandate is to increase the quality of care for companion animals through knowledge transfer among and between human and veterinary clinicians, together improving patient outcomes, client care and professional satisfaction.

The successful candidate will benefit from a cross care model where all clinicians, including specialists, have knowledge of cases to ensure the highest quality of medicine, daily rounds, a positive work environment with supportive leadership and a strong team of dedicated and knowledgeable support staff.  We recognize the importance of work/life balance and have designed a full-time schedule that allows for ample time to relax, travel and pursue your hobbies.   

As part of our network, you will receive competitive compensation, bonus potential, generous CE allowance, VIN membership, licensing dues paid, paid vacation, paid wellness days, generous personal pet policy, great health benefits and access to our network of over 1000 DVMs!
