Veterinarian at Companion Animal Hospital

Additional Hospital Information & What We are Looking For: 

• Interest In: Small-animal general practice, including wellness exams, preventative care, diagnostics, dental services, soft tissue surgery, laboratory services, senior wellness, vaccinations, microchipping, pain management, spay/neuter, and compassionate client education. The practice also offers avian and exotic pet care, providing variety for doctors who want exposure to those species while maintaining a strong primary small-animal GP focus.

New Graduate or Experienced DVMs: Whether you're a new graduate looking for a strong foundation or an experienced veterinarian seeking your next opportunity, we'd love to connect. We recognize that every veterinarian has different career and lifestyle goals, which is why we're open to discussing full-time or part-time opportunities and creating a schedule that works for both you and our team.

New graduates will benefit from our well-developed, structured one-year mentorship program. Your schedule will intentionally overlap with your dedicated Clinical Mentor, so you'll never feel like you're navigating cases alone. Beyond day-to-day clinical guidance, you'll participate in regular mentor meetings, goal-setting workshops, and soft-skill coaching focused on client communication and professional development.

Before your first day in practice, you'll have opportunities to build confidence through hands-on surgical and dental wet labs. Our 5-day Surgical Mentorship Program provides individualized learning in a small-group setting, where participants typically perform 20–40 surgeries under the guidance of experienced mentors. You'll also attend a 2-day Dental Wet Lab, led by one of our board-certified dental specialists, to build confidence in foundational dentistry skills before entering practice.

We believe a new graduate would bring fresh energy, curiosity, and new perspectives to our already collaborative team. You'll be surrounded by experienced professionals who genuinely enjoy mentoring, teaching, and celebrating each milestone as you build confidence in your first years of practice.

Experienced veterinarians will enjoy the autonomy, collaboration, and support to continue growing their clinical interests because learning doesn't stop after graduation. In addition to generous continuing education benefits, you'll have access to our Clinical Tracks Program, offering complimentary RACE-approved CE led by our own board-certified veterinary specialists. Whether your passion is surgery, dentistry, internal medicine, exotics, leadership, or another area of veterinary medicine, we'll help you continue developing the skills and interests that matter most to you.

Have a special interest? Let's talk about how we can help make it a larger part of your everyday practice.
