If you're looking for a place where your skills are respected and your personality actually fits in, you'll find it here at Chisholm Trail Animal Hospital. We've been a fixture in the Park City community since 1979, and while we're proud of our AAHA accreditation and 4.8-star rating, we're even prouder of the atmosphere we've built. We stay at the top of our game with tools like advanced laser therapy, but we never lose sight of the heart behind the medicine.What's in it for you? You won't just be another set of hands in the exam room. You'll be joining a group of people who genuinely have each other's backs. We know that "burnout" is a real thing in this industry, so we prioritize a culture of mentorship and actual support. Whether you're wanting to master a new surgical technique or just want a team that cheers you on while you learn, we're here to help you reach whatever your next "level" looks like.We love calling Park City home, and if the area is new to you, we think you will too. We're tucked just ten minutes north of Wichita, giving you the best of both worlds: a quiet, affordable small-town feel with all the city perks right down the road. Between the great schools and the community fishing lake, it's a beautiful place to actually enjoy your life outside of work hours.
