Job description

Love variety in your veterinary practice? Crave the balance of small and large animal medicine, with a little equine repro mixed in? Dixie Veterinary Clinic in beautiful St. George, Utah, is growing—and we’re looking for a full-time mixed animal practitioner to join our passionate, tight-knit team.

This position is truly mixed animal—roughly 50% small animal and 50% large animal, with the majority of large animal work focused on equine, plus a growing demand for bovine farm calls and small ruminant care. We’d especially love someone with interest in equine reproduction, as there’s a strong and growing client need in our area.

We’re ideally looking for an experienced DVM, but our Lead DVM is an enthusiastic mentor and welcomes new graduates.

What We Offer:

We don’t like to brag… but when it comes to equipment, we’ve got it all:

• Large Animal: Digital radiography, in-house lab, ultrasound, endoscopy, and an equine hydraulic surgical table
• Small Animal: In-house lab, digital dental radiography, digital radiography, ultrasound, and a therapeutic laser

We offer flexible scheduling with a 40-hour work week (we’re happy to tailor days/hours around your needs). On-call is every other week.

Why Dixie Vet Clinic?

At Dixie Veterinary Clinic, you’ll be part of a supportive, collaborative team with a deep commitment to our clients and their animals. Our leadership is hands-on, and the environment is one where your skills are trusted, respected, and continuously developed. We’re proudly independently owned and deeply rooted in our community.

Why St. George, Utah?

Nestled in the red rock canyons of southern Utah, St. George is paradise for outdoor lovers—world-class hiking, biking, climbing, and horseback riding are right outside your door. You'll be minutes from Zion National Park and a short drive to Bryce Canyon, Snow Canyon, and the Grand Canyon. With a mild climate year-round, a thriving arts and food scene, and an excellent quality of life, it’s no wonder St. George is one of the fastest-growing cities in the U.S.
