    Job description

    Who we are:

    Pinnacle Veterinary Center is seeking an Associate Veterinarian to join our collaborative, high-energy 3-doctor team supported by 8 dedicated support staff. We are a general practice built on strong medicine, mentorship, and a culture where doctors are supported, challenged, and genuinely enjoy coming to work.

    Our Values

    We believe in collaborative medicine, strong mentorship, and a supportive environment where doctors can grow clinically while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Communication, compassion, continuous learning, and mutual respect are at the core of how we practice.

    Our Hospital

    Built in 2018, our modern general practice includes:

    • 4 exam rooms
    • 1 treatment area
    • Surgery suite
    • Digital radiology & dental radiology
    • Ultrasound
    • 9 small kennels & 3 large runs
    • Paper-lite workflow with strong technical support

    We are a 90% small animal / 10% exotics hospital—an increasingly unique and valued service in our region. We also partner with an in-house orthopedic surgeon, allowing us to offer advanced procedures at more accessible pricing while creating strong learning opportunities for our doctors.

    We proudly support local rescues including Wolf Connection, SoCal French Bulldog Rescue, Sweet Angel Dog Rescue, and Studio Animal Services.

    Schedule & Workflow

    • Monday–Friday: 8 am–5 pm
    • Saturday: 8am–3pm
    • Closed Sundays

    Our doctor schedule is structured to support balance, efficiency, and surgical growth:

    • One DVM performs surgery/dentals (8am–12pm), then appointments (1pm–5pm)
    • One DVM runs appointments all day
    • Roles rotate to ensure all doctors receive consistent surgical exposure

    Each DVM receives at least 2 surgery days per week, and there are always 2 doctors on site for support and collaboration.

    We are seeking full-time (4–5 days/week), though part-time may be considered. Friday and Saturday coverage is especially important.

    Culture & Team Environment

    Our team is close-knit, energetic, and deeply supportive. We work hard, but we also prioritize connection, appreciation, and fun.

    We regularly host:

    • Monthly staff and DVM meetings
    • Lunch & Learns every other month
    • Team-building events (escape rooms, craft nights, seasonal outings)
    • Birthday celebrations and milestone recognition
    • Creative hospital events like pajama day (with free nail trims, pup cups, and client participation)
    • Wellness initiatives including massage days in-clinic

    We intentionally build a culture where people feel valued, supported, and excited to come to work.

    Compensation & Benefits

    We offer a competitive ProSal model with strong earning potential and no negative accrual:

    • $130K–$150K ProSal base range (no negative accrual)
    • $20K sign-on bonus (DOE)
    • 401(k) retirement plan
    • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
    • CE allowance, professional dues, and liability coverage
    • Paid vacation, holidays, and parental leave
    • Employee Assistance Program (EAP) and wellness support
    • Exclusive employee discounts (travel, dining, fitness, entertainment, electronics, and more)

    Location – Santa Clarita, CA

    Santa Clarita offers a highly desirable Southern California lifestyle with excellent schools, safe neighborhoods, and abundant outdoor recreation. Enjoy hiking, biking, and year-round sunshine, with easy access to Los Angeles, dining, entertainment, and attractions like Six Flags Magic Mountain.

    Please send your resume to Jose at [email protected]. We are looking for a veterinarian who wants more than just a job—someone who values strong medicine, real mentorship, and a team that supports each other every day.
