Job description

Associate Veterinarian – Rotating Role Between Two Progressive Hospitals

Location: Hanover Park & Roselle, IL
Type: Full-Time | Rotating Schedule | Companion Animal Practice

Are you an enthusiastic and compassionate Associate Veterinarian ready to take your career to the next level in a collaborative and supportive environment? We’re looking for a dynamic DVM to split their time between two thriving practices: Hanover Park Animal Care Center and Lake Street Animal Hospital—located just minutes apart in Chicago’s northwest suburbs.

Why This Role Stands Out:

Diverse Experience Across Two Hospitals:

• Work in both a 5-doctor team-based environment at Hanover Park and a 4-doctor, expanding practice at Lake Street.
• Gain exposure to a wide range of cases, client relationships, and advanced procedures.
• Enjoy a truly team-oriented culture where mentorship is prioritized and collaboration is part of daily life.
• You’ll always have another doctor or seasoned technician by your side.
• Access to our teaching hospital, Pet One, which is just a few miles away from both hospitals!

Cutting-Edge Facilities:

• In-House Labs with IDEXX technology
• Ultrasound (including cardiac), Orthopedic Surgery, Advanced Dentistry
• Companion Laser Therapy
• AVImark EMR and paper-lite environment

Work-Life Balance & Benefits:

• Competitive base salary + bonus opportunities
• Health, Life, and Disability Insurance
• Generous PTO and CE Allowance
• 401(K) with Employer Contributions
• State License and DEA covered
• Rotating schedule = variety without burnout

Who We’re Looking For:

• A DVM or VMD with a positive, team-first attitude
• New grads welcome! We offer hands-on mentorship
• Strong communicator who values client education
• Comfortable with routine medical and surgical procedures — or ready to learn

About the Area:

Located just outside of Chicago, Hanover Park and Roselle offer the best of both worlds: small-town charm and big-city access. Enjoy local wineries, parks, and cultural spots, or head downtown for world-class dining, arts, and sports.

*Prosal Compensation with a base range of $110k - $150k. Compensation commensurate with experience, skills, schedule, and the scope of services provided
