LOVE YOUR JOB AGAIN
HELP US CHANGE YOUR LIFE

East Bay pets need you! Associate DVM wanted!
DVMs: If you are looking for a collaborative team and a positive work environment, please keep reading.

We know there are a lot of open veterinarian postings. VERY FEW will help you LOVE this amazing profession again. We know you want to find the perfect match for your skills and interests, in a space where you can grow your career. However, it is equally important you get to LOVE your job, colleagues and clients again.

So take a moment to get to know us. We are an independently owned, progressive yet well established hospital in Oakland, California. We offer our associate veterinarians excellent compensation and extremely generous benefits, and we are driven by medical standards of care, not corporate profit goals. We are looking for an extraordinary associate doctor to join our family. Someone who brings their own experience to the hospital but also has a desire to learn, to take on new responsibilities, and to be challenged. We would also love to meet outstanding recent grads who are excited about learning and growing in a safe, supportive environment.
We have an amazingly positive whole hospital team. Our decisions are made by doctors who
seek the best medicine possible, while putting patients and staff first. We are collaborative and “old school” in that we get to love what we do and are actual friends who help each other every day.
If you want to share your workday with smart, kind, energetic and compassionate doctors and staff who can work autonomously but value a collaborative approach, then you will find yourself right at home with us.
