Managing Veterinarian | Swan Creek Veterinary Clinic

Havre de Grace, Maryland

Leadership doesn't have to mean giving up the part of veterinary medicine you love.

At Swan Creek Veterinary Clinic, we're looking for a Managing Veterinarian who enjoys mentoring others, practicing high-quality medicine, and helping shape the future of a thriving hospital- all while maintaining a healthy work-life balance.

• Opportunities to grow professionally while still practicing medicine
• Optional joint ownership for those interested in practice leadership
