Job description

Slatersville Veterinary Clinic is seeking an associate veterinarian. We are a privately owned, family-oriented practice located in North Smithfield, RI. Our current hours are 8-5pm Monday through Friday, with no on-call hours. We are looking for a caring, motivated individual to join our team. Benefits include health insurance, 401K, PTO, and employee discounts. Interested candidates should email a cover letter and resume.

Experience in surgery and willingness to mentor in surgical procedures would be a plus, especially for our newer veterinarian who is nearly 5 years out of school. We are a two-doctor practice seeking a full or part-time veterinarian, as well as several experienced technicians.

We prioritize work-life balance while providing quality veterinary care. A love of surgery and dentistry is also desirable.

There is a significant community need for additional veterinary services, including routine and urgent care. We aim to maintain a friendly, helpful environment for clients and staff.

Our current scheduling needs include any or all of the following: 8-5pm Monday, Tuesday morning (8-2), 8-5pm Wednesday, and Thursday and Friday afternoons (1-5pm). We are also looking to hire additional experienced technicians. Our staff includes 3 full-time technicians, 2 part-time technicians, and a full-time receptionist. Some technicians are trained in surgery, dental mapping, cleaning, and radiographs.

We have associates who see exotic animals, and we are interviewing a veterinarian experienced in exotic surgery. Our team includes a board-certified internal medicine specialist who performs ultrasounds monthly, and an echocardiogram service is available through a partner. Additionally, a board-certified surgeon comes as needed for procedures such as CCL repairs and complex soft tissue surgeries.

Negotiable compensation based on schedule, competitive with local veterinary hospitals. Benefits include accrued PTO, a 3% owner contribution to the 401K regardless of employee contribution, and year-end profit sharing added to the 401K. We offer generous employee pet discounts. Candidates should have at least 2 years of veterinary experience or a full-time internship, with proficient surgical skills, particularly in common surgeries. Emergency surgery is not typically performed unless the veterinarian chooses to add this service. We do see many urgent appointments.
