Veterinarian

All Creatures Care Cottage Vet Hospital is a busy, 3.5-doctor practice that is open 6 days a week. We recently moved into a brand new building that was purpose built with 5 exam rooms, a large treatment area, radiology, surgery suite, isolation and boarding and are looking for a new DVM to add to our growing practice.

Here at All Creatures, we see small animals and exotics (treating exotics is not required to work with us!). Our hospital is fully equipped with in-house laboratory equipment, digital X-ray, digital dental X-ray. We have an ultrasound with color Doppler, CardioPet ECG, telemedicine, therapeutic laser and a full surgical suite with the latest monitoring equipment and electrical cautery. Our scope of veterinary services extends to:

• Behavioral issues
• Dermatology
• Dental care
• Internal medicine
• Gastrointestinal disorders
• Cardiology
• Surgery (including some ortho)
• Autoimmune conditions

We have a highly leveraged and experienced staff including multiple RVTs to help you provide the best medicine. We serve a highly educated, dedicated clientele who expects competent, compassionate and cutting edge care for their pets. We have an in-house cardiologist and orthopedic surgeon available as needed.

If you pride yourself on your positive attitude and excellent client service/communication then you may be an excellent addition to our team. We have an excellent mentoring program and encourage recent graduates, in addition to more experienced DVMs, to apply!

The Veterinarian is responsible for providing high quality care to our patients while also developing rapport with their owners. In addition to physical examinations, surgeries, and dentistry, client communication and client education are of the utmost importance. It’s important that SVP Veterinarians treat each pet and client like part of the family.
