Job description

Associate Veterinarian | High Production Potential + Orthopedic Mentorship

Elko Veterinary Clinic is looking for an Associate Veterinarian to join the largest and busiest veterinary clinic in Northeastern Nevada.

If you want a role where you can stay busy, see interesting cases, grow your surgical skills, and have excellent production potential, this is an opportunity worth exploring.

Our mixed-animal practice provides general, urgent, and emergency care for companion animals, equine patients, livestock, and exotics. With a consistently busy caseload, our doctors have significant opportunity to build production and increase their overall earnings.

We are open to both experienced veterinarians and new graduates. We are also especially excited to meet doctors who want to learn more about orthopedic surgery. Our team performs many advanced orthopedic procedures, including TPLOs, and can provide mentorship to veterinarians looking to grow those skills.

What You’ll Find Here:

• $110,000–$150,000 base salary + production bonus
• Strong production potential in a high-volume practice
• No negative accrual
• DVM Long-Term Incentive Cash Program
• Sign-on bonus and relocation assistance available
• Generous CE allowance
• Paid licenses and professional dues
• 401(k) with company match
• Flexible scheduling
• Mentorship for new graduates and experienced veterinarians
• Opportunity to learn and develop orthopedic surgery skills
• A Caseload That Keeps Things Interesting

Our services include wellness, dentistry, urgent and emergency care, advanced diagnostics, soft tissue surgery, and orthopedic procedures including:

• TPLO
• TTA
• Interlocking nail
• External fixation
• Toggle pin
• Plate and screw fracture repair

The hospital is equipped with digital radiology, digital dental radiography, ultrasound, MRI, CT imaging, an in-house diagnostic laboratory, laser therapy, endoscopy, and more.

You’ll join a collaborative team of six skilled and supportive veterinarians, along with multiple technicians and assistants who help our doctors fully utilize their medical and surgical abilities.

Life in Elko

Elko offers the kind of lifestyle that is hard to replicate in a larger city: mountain views, wide-open spaces, alpine lakes, fishing, hiking, skiing, wildlife, and access to the beautiful Ruby Mountains.

It’s a great fit for someone who wants an exciting veterinary career without giving up the chance to enjoy life outside of work.

Let’s Talk

Whether you’re a new graduate looking for strong mentorship or an experienced veterinarian ready to expand your surgical skills and earning potential, we’d love to meet you.
