Our caring veterinarians and staff are committed to providing your companion animals with the best quality of medical care possible.

We’ve been in business for over 30 years and continually strive to provide the most up-to-date medicine with state-of-the-art equipment for your animals. Innovative electronic record-keeping provides immediate access to your animal’s medical history, and our modern facilities and caring staff allow for a clean and friendly environment.

All staff participates in continuing education programs which, combined with the above, enables us to reach our goal of providing the ultimate level of care for your animal. We offer veterinary services for a wide range of animals, including cats and dogs.

We are seeking an experienced veterinarian to join our team as the Managing DVM!

Our current leader is ready to pass the torch to a growth-minded individual, offering a unique professional development opportunity. We are a successful, steady-paced, and team-focused small animal practice, and we are excited to welcome a new generation of leadership!

The Managing DVM is responsible for providing medical and non-medical leadership for the practice, managing associate veterinarians, and ensuring regulatory compliance relating to veterinary medicine. The Managing DVM is also responsible for creating an environment of teamwork and collaboration in which quality medicine is delivered. Additional responsibilities include guiding the direction of the practice, advancing medical care, and monitoring the practice's financial performance.

This position comes with a great multi-site opportunity at our sister location, Grantsburg Animal Hospital in Grantsburg, Wisconsin. Just over the border, our second location provides additional opportunities to our clients, helping our cohesive team achieve even more lifelong relationships within our community.

Our practices currently consist of 4 DVMs, 2 certified veterinary technicians, and 9 veterinary assistants, creating an ideal doctor-to-tech/assistant ratio. Our technical staff is highly utilized, ensuring that their doctors always have an extra hand and can manage their time as needed. We foster a supportive team environment, with caseloads that are optimal for a doctor who likes to keep a steady agenda with a balance of medical and surgical cases.
