Ridgetop Animal Hospital - Silverdale, WA
Ready to actually use your technician skills?
Ridgetop Animal Hospital is looking for a Licensed Veterinary Technician to join our growing team in Silverdale, Washington.
We’re a busy, progressive small-animal hospital combining high-quality general practice with same-day urgent care, advanced surgery, dentistry, and a diverse medical caseload. We take pride in practicing excellent medicine while giving our LVTs the opportunity to use the skills they’ve worked hard to develop.
If you enjoy variety, want to stay challenged, and are looking for a hospital where technicians play an important role in patient care, we’d love to meet you.
What Makes Ridgetop Different?
Our LVTs see much more than routine wellness appointments. You’ll have the opportunity to work across preventative care, complex medical cases, urgent care, dentistry, anesthesia, hospitalized patient care, and advanced surgery.
Our surgical caseload includes procedures such as TPLO, lateral sutures, MPL and fracture repair, TECA, cystotomy, splenectomy, GI surgery, PU, FHO/DFO, amputations, and more.
Our hospital is equipped with digital radiography, in-house IDEXX diagnostics, dental radiography, advanced anesthesia monitoring, and therapeutic laser technology.
Most importantly, we want our LVTs to practice as LVTs. We value strong technical skills, clinical judgment, patient advocacy, and technicians who take ownership of patient care while working closely with our veterinarians and support team.
Fear Free, Patient-Focused Care
How we care for our patients matters just as much as the medicine we provide. Our team emphasizes Fear Free principles, thoughtful handling, and patient advocacy. We want team members who recognize when a patient needs a different approach and are comfortable speaking up for their physical and emotional well-being.
