Our mission is to serve pets and people by continually pushing to improve our medicine, our service, our communication, and ourselves.

Why PESCM

We are not your typical veterinary hospital. PESCM is run by managers who have been with the hospital for a decade or more, all promoted from within.

The technician will have an active role in client communication, including communication of diagnostic results and procedures as dictated by the Internist, diagnostic and procedural organization, and facilitation, and will assist in the short‑ and long‑term management of their patients. The candidate ideally has a basic understanding of the various diseases seen in Internal Medicine and must possess a strong passion and motivation for further learning.

• Experience working as a Registered Veterinary Technician
• Experience with anesthesia
• Experience with endoscopy is preferred but not required
