Our team is ready to welcome a veterinarian at any stage of their career. Whether you're a new graduate looking for mentorship or an experienced doctor with established interests, we’ll support your growth and help you practice the kind of medicine you enjoy.

Our Fear Free practice has a warm, homey feel (yes—our building was originally a house!) with three exam rooms, a surgery suite, grooming, and boarding. You’ll have the tools you need to do great work, including in-house labs, digital radiography, and ultrasound.

We keep our days productive and well-supported, with a schedule designed to respect your time—your last appointment is at 4:10pm. We’re ideally looking for a doctor who enjoys surgery and dentistry and wants to be part of a collaborative, easygoing team.
