Job description

Southview Animal Hospital is seeking an Urgent Care Veterinarian to join one of Minnesota’s largest and most medically progressive small animal hospitals.

This opportunity is ideal for a veterinarian who enjoys fast-paced medicine, case variety, and greater clinical independence while still benefiting from the support, collaboration, and resources of a large multi-doctor hospital.

With urgent care available seven days per week, Southview offers a strong platform for doctors to practice high-quality, same-day medicine in an environment designed to support both patients and clinicians.

What This Role Offers

Urgent care at Southview offers the best of both worlds: the pace and variety of same-day medicine with the support of experienced colleagues, advanced diagnostics, skilled technicians, 24-hour hospitalization support, and visiting specialists when cases require additional collaboration.

Key Highlights

• Greater autonomy and clinical independence within a collaborative hospital setting
• A flexible urgent care model with scheduled arrival times and emergent walk-in availability
• A diverse and engaging caseload
• Advanced onsite diagnostics, including ultrasound, CT, and endoscopic procedures
• Visiting specialist support, including cardiology, soft tissue surgery, and orthopedic surgery, remote specialist support available for radiology and more.
• Collaboration with an experienced team of doctors, technicians, and support staff
• The ability to remain hands‑on in-patient care as cases move forward
• Support from a hospital structure designed for more complex patient management

Southview’s urgent care model allows doctors to manage a wide range of cases while having access to the people, tools, and resources needed to provide thoughtful and efficient care. It is a great fit for a veterinarian who enjoys medical variety, problem-solving, client communication, and the ability to help patients when timely access matters most.

We are seeking an experienced veterinarian who is comfortable navigating urgent care cases with a higher level of independence while collaborating closely within a larger hospital team.

Compensation & Benefits

• Base salary: $120,000–$150,000 plus production, commensurate with experience
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• 401(k) with match
• Generous CE allowance
• Uniform allowance
• Access to mentorship and professional development resources, including PetOne Veterinary
• Additional benefits and support through NVA

This is an ideal opportunity for a veterinarian seeking the pace of urgent care, the support of a collaborative hospital, and the chance to help shape the continued growth of urgent care medicine at Southview.
