Why You'll Love Working at Red Hills

A Truly Diverse Veterinary Practice

If you enjoy variety, you'll find plenty of it here. Red Hills serves patients throughout Eastern Wyoming and provides care for dogs, cats, exotic pets, horses, and farm animals. Whether your passion is surgery, dentistry, internal medicine, equine medicine, large-animal work, or building strong client relationships in general practice, there are opportunities to develop the areas of medicine you enjoy most.

Practice in a Modern, Purpose-Built Facility

Our new 7,000-square-foot facility was designed around the needs of today's veterinary team, with 10 exam rooms, a large treatment and ICU area, dedicated dental and surgical suites, a comfort room, an indoor equine treatment area, and an outdoor cattle-working facility with a portable hydraulic squeeze chute.

AAHA-Accredited Medicine

Red Hills is proudly AAHA-accredited, reflecting our commitment to high standards of veterinary care, patient safety, and hospital operations.

More Flexibility. More Control Over Your Life.

Your schedule doesn't have to look like everyone else's. We offer several scheduling options, including:

• Three-day workweeks
• Four-day workweeks
• 3/4/3 rotating schedules
• Flexible scheduling conversations based on your individual needs

We believe great veterinarians shouldn't have to choose between a rewarding career and having a life outside the hospital.

Live Where Adventure Is Part of Everyday Life

Gillette offers something increasingly hard to find: space, community, affordability, and access to the outdoors. Enjoy wide-open Wyoming living while having easy access to Devils Tower, the Black Hills, the Bighorn Mountains, hiking, camping, fishing, hunting, mountain biking, and other year-round outdoor activities.

And with Red Hills serving the greater Eastern Wyoming region, you'll have the opportunity to become part of a community that genuinely values its veterinary professionals.
