Job description

At Kindness Animal Hospital, you join a team that values your dedication as much as the medicine you provide. As a teammate here, you benefit from working in an AAHA-accredited facility—a standard only a small fraction of practices achieve—ensuring you have the high-caliber environment needed to do your best work. You will feel supported by a culture that prioritizes low-stress patient care, inclusive of "cats-only" exam rooms and a welcoming vibe for every patient and teammate. You have the opportunity to expand your skills across a diverse and engaging caseload that includes dogs, cats, and a well-known avian and exotic program. Whether you are performing surgery, utilizing digital X-ray and ultrasound, or managing complex cases for reptiles and small mammals, you are a vital part of a collaborative team. You also gain the support of a larger network that offers internal specialty consultations and the resources to help you reach your professional goals, whether that means becoming a credentialed technician or stepping into leadership. Your growth is a priority here, and you will find the mentorship and tools necessary to succeed at every stage of your career. You will love the lifestyle that comes with living in South Tulsa, where a low cost of living meets big-city perks. You can spend your time away from the clinic exploring "The Gathering Place," one of the top-rated parks in the country, or taking in the local arts and dining scenes. It is a community that allows you to find a great balance between a rewarding career and a vibrant personal life in the heart of Green Country.
