Job description

Atlas are excited to be working closely with a modern, membership-based veterinary group in the DMV area that is redefining what day-to-day life in practice can look like for veterinarians.

This is a well-established, purpose-built clinic designed by animal experts to reduce stress for pets and create a calm, organized working environment for the clinical team. The hospital is fully equipped to support high-quality general practice medicine, with skilled veterinary nurses, excellent doctor-to-support staff ratios, and technology that allows you to focus on medicine rather than paperwork.

This role offers the opportunity to practice gold-standard care with longer appointment times (typically 30-60 minutes), dedicated admin time built into your day, and a strong clinical framework to support consistency and quality. Doctors here are part of a broader collaborative network, with access to mentorship and leadership development, and the ability to get involved in training and supporting other clinicians as they grow. Fear Free principles are embedded into daily practice, and the hospital is AAHA accredited.

The position would suit an experienced veterinarian who enjoys building lasting client relationships, values teamwork, and wants to work in an environment that prioritizes sustainability, transparency, and professional growth. The compensation package is highly competitive, with a strong base salary, performance-based bonus structure, and long-term incentives, alongside a comprehensive benefits offering.
