Why You’ll Love Lake Elsinore

Lake Elsinore offers the perfect mix of Southern California lifestyle without the extreme coastal price tag.

• Affordable Housing: Get significantly more space, a bigger yard, or a home closer to the water compared to nearby San Diego, Temecula, or Riverside.
• Outdoor Adventure: Right on the shores of Southern California’s largest freshwater lake—perfect for boating, fishing, and jet skiing. Hike Ortega Falls, explore McVicker Canyon Park, or skydive at Skydive Elsinore.
• Local Entertainment: Catch a baseball game or live concert at the Diamond Stadium (home of the Lake Elsinore Storm).
• Perfectly Centralized: You are only 40 miles from the waves at San Clemente Beach and just 90 miles from the ski slopes of Big Bear. Sun or snow, it is all a quick drive away.

Requirements & Responsibilities

• Education & Licensing: Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM/VMD) and a valid California Veterinary License (or eligibility to obtain one).
• Clinical Skills: Competency in performing thorough physical examinations, executing diagnostics, and developing effective inpatient and outpatient treatment plans.
• Client Communication: Strong interpersonal skills with the ability to clearly explain exam findings, diagnostics, and treatment plans to clients, as well as compassionately guide them through end-of-life decisions.
• Medical Operations: Commitment to prescribing, monitoring, and dispensing medications safely, while maintaining thorough, efficient medical records.
• Surgical Skills: Proficiency in general surgeries (e.g., spays, neuters, laceration repairs, abscess treatments) is a plus.
• Professional Growth: We eagerly support your desire to expand your surgical skills and responsibilities as your clinical proficiency and continuing education progress.
• Collaboration: Dedication to practicing the highest standard of medicine by working collaboratively with fellow veterinarians and support staff to ensure patient care is never compromised.
