Job description

Associate Veterinarian - Philadelphia, PA | Independently-Owned (4564901e-0efd-4bd4-a6ed-7917e913688a)

Location Philadelphia, United States Sector Other Salary $120,000.00 to $160,000.00 per annum

We are working on behalf of an independent, veterinarian-owned small animal hospital in one of Philadelphia’s most vibrant neighborhoods that is looking to welcome an Associate Veterinarian to its close-knit team.
The practice has built a strong local reputation for combining conventional medicine with integrative therapies for dogs and cats, and was recently recognized as a local readers’ favorite. Services include wellness and vaccinations, surgery, dentistry and radiology, alongside acupuncture, laser therapy and PEMF (Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy). A board-certified radiologist supports the team’s diagnostic imaging, and the hospital has in-house lab equipment and radiography. The owner is a CVA-certified veterinarian who works clinically in the building and is genuinely invested in the culture and the people around them. Fear-free, low-stress handling and transparent client communication sit at the heart of how the hospital operates, and the team has a real commitment to animal welfare through its close link with a local animal rescue.
This is a fast-paced, community-focused general practice with a varied caseload, and with certified veterinary acupuncturists already on the team, it is a rare chance to gain exposure to integrative medicine within a busy urban hospital. If you want to practice good medicine somewhere that feels like part of its neighborhood, we would be very happy to share more about the team, the role and what day-to-day life looks like.

About You
