Overview

Veterinarian (Associate or Chief of Staff) at St. Charles Animal Hospital – Waldorf, MD. $100k Sign-On Bonus | Flexible Schedules | Leadership & Mentorship Opportunities

Want to work in a hospital where you can practice top-tier medicine without the burnout? At St. Charles Animal Hospital, we’ve spent 46 years building a trusted, high-performing practice rooted in quality care and strong relationships—with pets, clients, and each other. Whether you’re a new grad seeking structured mentorship or an experienced DVM ready to lead, we’d love to welcome you to our close-knit, tech-forward team.

What Makes Us Stand Out

• Human-Grade Equipment, AAHA-Accredited Care
• In-house lab, digital/dental x-ray, Olympus Color Video Endoscope, ultrasound, laser therapy, and advanced surgical tools
• Two dedicated surgery days per week (optional)

Growth-Driven Culture

• Monthly CE with DC Academy (optional, but our team loves it!)
• Personalized mentorship, leadership development, and Chief of Staff training
• Opportunity to revive exotic pet care—we’ve got the history and demand for it

Stability + Community

• 3 DVMs (tenure: 12–16 years), including a board-certified Chief of Staff (ABVP, 51 years in practice)
• Staff holiday parties, crab feasts, team outings—we genuinely like each other

Associate or Leadership Path—You Choose

• A new graduate looking to grow in a nurturing, structured environment
• An experienced doctor ready to step into leadership with guidance from our longtime Chief of Staff

Life in Waldorf
