A legacy of exceptional care. A future you can help shape.

After many meaningful years serving the community, Dr. Kaufman has stepped into a well-deserved retirement—leaving behind a foundation built on compassion, trust, and outstanding medicine. Now, we’re looking for veterinarians ready to carry that legacy forward while helping us grow what’s next—especially on the general practice side.

Why This Role Feels Different

This is more than a hospital—it’s a collaborative, forward-thinking team that believes great medicine starts with supported doctors.

We’re proud to be an AAHA-accredited hospital where quality isn’t just a standard—it’s a mindset. Here, you’ll find the rare balance of advanced medical capabilities and genuine work-life harmony.

Real Work-Life Balance

We know that being your best for patients starts with having time for yourself. That’s why we offer:

• Flexible scheduling tailored to your life
• A culture that respects your time—inside and outside the hospital
• A team that steps up for each other, every day

 Practice the Medicine You Love

Whether you’re passionate about wellness care, surgery, diagnostics, or building long-term client relationships, you’ll have the tools—and support—to do it right.

Our hospital features:

• Full in-house lab & digital radiography
• Mindray Vetus E7 ultrasound, plus endoscopy & laparoscopy
• AI-assisted dictation tools to streamline your workflow
• A strong technician-to-doctor ratio, including highly skilled CVTs
• Urgent care & emergency support for more complex cases

This is a place where general practice is valued, elevated, and growing—and where your voice can shape its future.

 Mentorship & Growth at Every Stage

• 3–6 month structured mentorship program for new grads
• Supportive environment for experienced DVMs looking to expand skills
• Collaboration across an 11.5-doctor team with diverse expertise

You’ll never feel like you’re practicing alone—we learn, consult, and grow together.
