Our well-equipped hospital features four exam rooms, digital radiography (including dental), ultrasound, and access to top-tier emergency care next door at Central Toronto Veterinary Referral Clinic. Our team of five DVMs, supported by over 13 seasoned staff, routinely performs a wide range of soft tissue surgeries—from spays, neuters, and dentals to intestinal foreign body removals. For specialized ophthalmology cases, we provide referral support to ensure patients receive expert care.

We embrace modern tools, including COVET for streamlined note‑taking, and foster a collaborative, team-based approach to medicine. Beyond patient care, we actively support rescues and host Canadian Animal Blood Bank events.

At Forest Hill Animal Clinic, we value work‑life balance, creativity, and celebrating milestones—whether it’s birthday desserts, holiday parties, or team outings, we know how to have fun while delivering outstanding care.

What We’re Looking For:

• A licensed DVM in Ontario with a passion for high-quality medical and surgical care
• Someone who thrives in a collaborative, team-based environment
• Comfortable performing routine dentals and soft tissue procedures
• Enthusiastic about supporting both patients and their families with compassionate care

Why Join Us?

• Be part of a clinic with over 50 years of legacy and experience
• Work in a well-equipped, accessible location on Eglinton West (TTC‑friendly)
• Engage in a fun, supportive, and professional team environment
• Enjoy a Competitive Total Rewards package, including Health/Dental benefits, RRSP matching, CE support, paid time off, and much more!
