Job description

An independently owned veterinary clinic in West Virginia is seeking a dedicated and skilled veterinarian to join their team. This practice offers a flexible and supportive environment, with a focus on small animal medicine, surgery, and dentistry.

Appointment times are generally 15 minutes, with flexibility depending on whether the patient is there for a sick or wellness visit. The clinic closes for lunch for around two hours each day and finishes early on Wednesdays. They offer a four-day work week with no weekend shifts. The schedule is typically Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 9 am to 5 pm, with a slightly shorter day on Tuesdays and Fridays.
