Job description

Southeastern Veterinary Specialty Center (SEVSC) is looking for a full-time or part-time boarded small animal veterinary surgeon. Compensation is negotiable and depends on experience level. There is paid health insurance, licensure, vacation, CE stipend, option for participation in company-sponsored 401k plan and pension plan. While experience is preferred, residency-trained candidates are strongly encouraged to apply and will have access to 20+ years of mentorship experience, both in university and private practice.

SEVSC is a stand-alone, privately owned, referral-only surgical practice in Columbus, Georgia. The majority of our case load is orthopedics, which offers a good case load. We are closed weekends and holidays, with no emergency or on‑call duty required, which allows for an excellent work‑life balance. At SEVSC, you can focus on your surgical cases without having to juggle multiple responsibilities like student and house officer mentorship, research, and publishing.

Our facility was built in 2021, and is equipped with 6 exam rooms, 2 surgical suites, digital radiography, ultrasonography, computed tomography, flexible and rigid endoscopy, in‑house IDEXX laboratory and outstanding staff ready to help the right candidate grow their surgical caseload. We also have a full‑time, board‑certified canine/feline specialist on staff to provide internal medicine consultations, abdominal and cardiac ultrasounds, and limited oncology services.

We are located in Columbus which is the second largest city in Georgia (second to Atlanta) and is located on the Chattahoochee River. Two state renowned theatres are located here, as well as a symphony orchestra. The longest urban whitewater rafting course in the world is available at our beautiful Riverwalk area, along with 15-mile walking and biking paths and trails. We are an hour and a half away from Atlanta, three hours from the gulf beaches and two and a half hours from the mountains. There are plenty of restaurants and entertainment downtown, and indoor/outdoor activities throughout the city and surrounding areas for all ages. Columbus is also home to a top‑ranked public Georgia elementary school and high school.
