Job description

Vet-Owned. People-First.

AcutePet Urgent Care is redefining how urgent veterinary care is delivered.

Since opening in July 2024, our West Chester team has quickly become a trusted resource for pet families and local veterinarians. That growth is driven by a strong clinical culture and a real need for thoughtful, accessible urgent care. As demand continues to build, we’re expanding and looking for veterinarians who want to practice high-quality medicine in a model designed for both clinical excellence and personal sustainability.

We deliver emergency-level care in an urgent care setting. That means meaningful cases, strong diagnostics, and real impact - without overnights or the intensity of traditional 24/7 ER schedules.

This role may be a strong fit for:

• Emergency veterinarians seeking a shift from overnight or high-acuity ER
• Experienced general practitioners ready to expand their scope
• Early-career DVMs interested in urgent care with structured mentorship
• Doctors who value autonomy alongside collaborative support

Why West Chester?

West Chester is one of the fastest-growing communities in Southwest Ohio, located just north of Cincinnati.

The area offers:

• Top-rated schools and family-friendly neighborhoods
• A strong local economy and business community
• Access to parks, trails, and outdoor recreation
• Proximity to downtown Cincinnati’s dining, arts, and professional sports
• A population of engaged pet owners who prioritize accessible care

The continued growth of the region has increased demand for thoughtful, affordable urgent care - making this hospital an essential resource for both pet families and surrounding primary care practices.
