Job description

Associate Vet | Northeast Pennsylvania | Sign On Bonus | No Weekends, On Call, or After Hours

Keystone Kingfisher Partners, LLC is representing a confidential small animal veterinary practice in Northeast Pennsylvania that is seeking an experienced Associate Veterinarian.

This is an opportunity for a veterinarian who wants the freedom to practice medicine with autonomy while still having the support of a collaborative team and a strong regional network. The practice is entering an important period of growth and modernization, and the incoming veterinarian will have a meaningful voice in its future.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• No required weekend hours
• No after hours or on call responsibilities
• Generous sign on bonus
• Competitive base salary plus production
• Autonomy in how you practice medicine
• Opportunity to build your own clientele
• Support from an established regional network
• A practice actively investing in its facility, services, and future

About the Practice

KKP’s client is an established small animal practice serving a close knit community in Northeast Pennsylvania. Clients value the personal relationships they build with their veterinary team, and many are looking for a veterinarian they can know and trust over the course of their pets’ lives.

The practice has a collaborative support team and is well equipped for general practice, dentistry, diagnostics, and surgery. The facility includes digital dental and body radiology, a dedicated surgical suite, and room to expand services based on the incoming veterinarian’s interests.

The practice is entering a new chapter, making this an especially strong opportunity for someone who wants more than a position where they simply inherit an existing routine. The new Associate Veterinarian will have the ability to help shape services, develop their own clientele, and leave a lasting mark on the hospital and community.

About the Role

The Associate Veterinarian will provide high quality small animal medicine while building strong relationships with clients and colleagues.

Responsibilities will include:

• Conducting examinations and developing treatment plans
• Providing preventive, diagnostic, medical, dental, and surgical care
• Communicating clearly and compassionately with pet owners
• Collaborating with veterinary technicians and support staff
• Helping identify opportunities to expand or strengthen hospital services
• Contributing to a positive and respectful practice culture

About You

KKP is looking for a veterinarian who brings sound clinical judgment, compassion, and a genuine interest in becoming part of the community.

The ideal candidate will have:

• Eligibility for veterinary licensure in Pennsylvania
• At least one year of clinical experience
• Strong communication skills with clients and colleagues
• Confidence practicing independently while remaining collaborative
• A practical, hands on approach to medicine
• Interest in building lasting client relationships
• Openness to helping shape the future of a growing practice

The practice is especially interested in veterinarians who have services or clinical interests they would like to develop further.

Life in Northeast Pennsylvania

Northeast Pennsylvania offers the kind of balance that can be difficult to find elsewhere. The region combines the familiarity and connection of a rural community with access to larger cities, universities, healthcare systems, and cultural opportunities.

Philadelphia and New York City are both accessible for evening and weekend trips, while areas within the Wyoming and Susquehanna river valleys provide additional dining, entertainment, shopping, and transportation options.

For those who prefer the outdoors, the region offers some of Pennsylvania’s premier recreation. Ricketts Glen State Park, robust water recreation infrastructure, the Pocono Mountains, and numerous state forests provide access to hiking, kayaking, fishing, camping, skiing, and year round exploration. The area also offers a lower cost of living than many major metropolitan markets, allowing residents to build a rewarding career without giving up space, community, or access to the outdoors.

Compensation and Benefits

• Competitive base salary ($120,000-$165,000 based upon experience) + production
• Generous sign on bonus
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• 401(k) with company match
• Paid vacation, sick time, and holidays
• Continuing education allowance and paid CE time
• Professional dues and liability coverage
• Opportunities for professional growth within a supportive network
