Associate Veterinarian – Sussex County, DE – #7270

We are eager to welcome a new veterinarian to the team! We host a collaborative environment, and our team is wonderful. We are looking for someone who has the desire to work with us long-term and become an integral part of our medical team!

We are a multi-campus animal shelter with low-cost wellness clinics that also provide spay/neuter surgery services.

The incoming veterinarian will perform a combination of shelter animal examinations and wellness care, and spay/neuter surgery for both shelter animals and personal clients. You will enjoy a healthy work-life balance as our clinics are only open 4 days a week.

We pride ourselves on providing a warm and welcoming environment for all staff members. We believe strongly in supporting our medical team in any way possible and encourage continuing education and peer-to-peer learning. We’re lucky to have 14 veterinarians currently on staff with ranging experience levels from 10+ years to freshly graduated.

Our belief is that it is the responsibility of animal welfare organizations to not only provide care and support for in-shelter populations but to also provide affordable access to quality veterinary care for all. Our veterinary teams care about the human side of the animal-human bond as much as the animal. We strive to do all that we can to keep loved pets with owners, especially in times of need.
The incoming veterinarian will continue to maintain our reputation of prestige and innovation. We think outside the box and accomplish feats other organizations may think impossible.

Benefits

• Base salary with sign-on/retention bonus
• Relocation assistance
• Medical insurance
