Job description

Passionate about emergency veterinary care? So are we!

At Mass-RI Veterinary ER, we provide compassionate, high-quality emergency and urgent care for cats and dogs in Swansea, Massachusetts. As a trusted 7-day emergency and urgent care hospital, our dedicated team works tirelessly to ensure pets receive the care they need when it matters most.

Why Mass-RI?

We believe in teamwork, mentorship, and supporting each other every step of the way, and whether you’re an experienced veterinarian, a recent graduate, or an aspiring technician, we support continued education and professional growth.

We’re a practice with a strong, supportive team of veterinary professionals who thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative environment. If you’re looking for a rewarding career in veterinary medicine – where your skills can make a life-saving difference – we’d love to hear from you!

Group President — Massachusetts & Rhode Island
COVE Animal Health

An executive role that doesn't ask you to stop being a veterinarian.

You’ll lead medicine, operations and culture across our growing Mass-RI network of emergency and primary care hospitals — and you'll still be on the floor in our anchor ER hospital, working alongside the doctors you lead.

What makes this one different

• You keep practicing. Clinical presence is part of the role, not something you squeeze in around it.

You lead in partnership with Operations. We are Veterinarian Led, with Operations expertise to support.

• You're building, not just running. De novos, acquisitions, and a region still taking shape.
• You share in the outcome — a bonus equity package tied to regional performance.

What you’ll own

Mentoring Lead Doctors and Medical Directors to build the next layer of veterinary leadership.

Medical excellence - clinical quality, safety and standards across every hospital in the region.

Regional growth strategy, hospital performance, and integration of new practices.

A visible, boots-on-the-ground presence — teams see you, not just hear from you.

What we’re looking for

DVM or VMD.

Emergency, urgent care, surgery, and/or Internal Medicine experience.

A track record leading collaborative teams and growing hospitals.

Real appetite for mentorship and developing people.

The package

Competitive executive compensation with performance-based equity, medical/dental/vision, 401(k) with match, PTO and holidays, CE and leadership development, professional dues and licensure, and relocation support where applicable.
