This isn’t just a job; it’s an invitation to design your own department from the ground up within an established, high-traffic practice.

Key Responsibilities

• Foundational Leadership: Architect and grow the Internal Medicine service, setting the standard for complex care within the practice.
• Clinical Excellence: Diagnose and treat a diverse range of complex medical conditions in small animals using state-of-the-art diagnostics.

• Mindset: An entrepreneurial spirit with a passion for building something from the ground up.
• Communication: A high-level communicator who can translate complex medicine into "pet-parent" language.

A Benefits Package That Actually Protects You

We believe that taking care of patients starts with taking care of you.

• Salary Security: Guaranteed base salary with no negative accrual.
• True PTO: Enjoy your time off without the "production debt" trap. You are not required to make up production while on leave.
• Wealth Building: 401k with a robust matching program (100% of the first 3%, plus 50% of the next 2%).
• Comprehensive Health: Medical, Dental, Vision, Critical Illness, and Hospital Indemnity insurance.
