Job description

We are working on behalf of a well-established, 24/7 general practice and emergency hospital in El Dorado Hills, CA that is looking to welcome an Overnight Emergency Veterinarian to its collaborative ER team.

This is a role for a DVM who enjoys owning a case from start to finish. You will see patients from initial presentation through diagnostics, treatment, surgery, and inpatient management, with the autonomy to make confident clinical calls and the equipment to back them up.

The schedule is three 12-hour overnight shifts, 8 pm to 8 am, on a consistent and predictable rotation, so you can actually plan your life outside of work. The caseload is varied and genuinely surgical, from outpatient emergencies to critical patients and complex inpatients, and the hospital is set up for it with two fully equipped operating rooms, digital radiology, ultrasound, an in-house lab, and advanced surgical equipment. A broad service mix, including a dedicated dental suite, regenerative therapies, rehabilitation, and an in-house blood donor program, gives you real options for your patients.

Overnight, you will be supported by experienced RVTs, veterinary assistants, and a cohesive nursing team who work together to keep patients and hospital flow moving.

The role offers a base salary of $225,000 to $250,000 plus uncapped production with no negative accrual, and a sign-on bonus and relocation support available for qualified candidates.

• Three 12-hour overnight shifts (8 pm to 8 am) on a consistent, predictable rotation
• Full-spectrum emergency medicine, from initial presentation through surgery and inpatient care
• Strong surgical caseload with two fully equipped operating rooms
• Digital radiology, ultrasound, in-house lab, and advanced surgical equipment
• Dedicated dental suite, regenerative therapies, rehabilitation, and an in-house blood donor program
• Experienced RVTs, veterinary assistants, and nursing team supporting you overnight
• Part of a Northern California hospital network with shared expertise and case collaboration
• Uncapped production with no negative accrual

About You

• DVM or equivalent degree, with a California veterinary license or eligibility for licensure
• Ideally 2+ years of clinical experience, with emergency or urgent care experience preferred
• Confident in emergency case management, surgery, and procedural interventions
• Sound clinical judgment, including knowing when to seek support
• Clear, compassionate communicator with clients and colleagues
• Collaborative, with the ability to provide calm clinical leadership overnight
• An interest in exotics is welcome, though not essential
• $225,000 to $250,000 base salary plus uncapped production with no negative accrual
• Sign-on bonus and relocation support available for qualified candidates
• Medical (including virtual care), dental, and vision insurance
• 401(k) with 100% company match up to 4%
• Health and Dependent Care FSA/HSA options
• Employer-paid life and AD&D insurance, plus short and long-term disability
