Job description

Pawleys Veterinary Hospital is seeking an Experienced Veterinarian to join our team.

Pawleys Veterinary Hospital, located on Pawleys Island, South Carolina, is less than 5 minutes from the beautiful beaches of the South Strand! We have a large number of excellent restaurants, a river walk, and a marsh walk all within a 15-20-minute drive. North of town, Brookgreen Gardens has a zoo, a collection of world-class outdoor sculptures, elaborate gardens, and hosts a variety of cultural events throughout the year. Across the street, Huntington Beach State Park is home to a large campground, Atalaya, a Moorish-style castle, walking trails, wetlands, and a beach with lifeguards during the summer season. It is a favorite location for bird watchers year-round, and alligators can be easily found during the warmer months. If you are looking for more attractions, Myrtle Beach is just a short 30-minute drive north, and Charleston, with all its culture and history, is just 90 minutes south of town.

Perhaps the best part of Pawleys Island is its small-town, laid-back atmosphere, even during the height of the summer visitor season. The schools' K-12 are highly rated and are all within a 2.5-mile radius of each other. Pawleys Island is known for being arrogantly shabby.

As an Associate Veterinarian, you will enjoy:

• Base Salary + production
• $10,000 relocation bonus
• Benefits package including health, dental, vision, ancillary coverage & 401K
• Attractive PTO and a work schedule that encourages a healthy work-life balance.

• After-hours emergencies are referred to a local emergency clinic – no after-hours call is required.

Our multi-doctor practice enjoys the support of a well-trained and highly utilized technical support staff along with high-quality diagnostic, treatment, and surgical equipment, allowing you to practice in an encouraging, supportive environment. To provide our gold standard quality of medicine, we are equipped with a full array of diagnostic tools and services, including:

• Digital radiography, including digital dental radiography

• Idexx in-house analyzers
• Paperless Records

The Associate Veterinarian is responsible for the medical and surgical care of our patients.
