Keeping our team growing! Associate Veterinarian w/ Sign-On Bonus

We are a locally owned, small animal hospital known in our area for practicing high-end, progressive medicine with a commitment to animal welfare and positive outcomes.  As you'd expect from such a hospital, we offer a full diagnostic lab, ultrasound, computerization, digital rads, high end dental, etc.  If we don't have something you need to practice your best, we'll gladly advance our services with your interests in mind!  What sets us apart is our desire to mentor and grow a long-term career, full benefits, excellent salary, all aimed at allowing reduced stress and ensuring the best work-life balance possible.  We understand this year in particular has changed how we as a profession practice, and have a firm belief that our staff wellness is the foundation of a healthy work atmosphere and ultimately benefits our patients as well!  We're all a team here and take each staff member's needs into account. 

A position at Westside Vet gives amazing flexibility to see a full spectrum of pet wellness exams all the way to urgent and interesting medical cases to the doctor's personal discretion and comfort level, yet has an overnight or emergency referral option nearby for those cases that are beyond the clinician's time, abilities, or medical constraints.  We would be ecstatic to take on a doctor with more critical care or other specialty experience to further enhance our offerings and comprehensive patient care!  We want someone with comprehensive goals, eager to help pets in a nose-to-tail fashion, and ready to push medicine in a direction focused much more on preventative care, than reactive care without a business model forcing wellness plans or cookie-cutter medicine into your personal ability to practice what you love.

Full laboratory with Idexx Procyte CBC and Catalyst chemistry machines, dual microscopes, centrifuge, digital full body and dental x-ray, ultrasound, and more. Central oxygen for ease of patient care throughout surgery suite, hospitalization, recovery and/or isolation areas.  Two CO2 laser surgery units, vacuum suction, isoflurane anesthesia, allow large variety of surgery offerings based on skill level and desire.  High level dental and oral surgery and extractions performed almost daily, excluding endodontics.  Close proximity to local emergency hospital for those cases that require transfer or overnight care.  High average client transactions and loyal client base means 6-figure earnings potential for enthusiastic team members on ProSal-based pay, complete with immediate vacation/sick time, health and dental insurance, professional dues, CE allowance.  $3000 sign-on bonus.  36 to 40-hr average work week (many 3 day weekends), no Sunday hours, no after-hour emergencies.  New graduates VERY much welcomed with mentorship opportunities from our current 4 doctor staff.  Contact Dr Leonard at 570-288-8895.  See www.wsvhospital.com and www.facebook.com/westsidevethospital/ for additional information and an inside look at our hospital.  Full and Part-Time positions welcomed.
