Who We Are
North Shore Veterinary Clinic | Hawaii
Looking for a veterinary career where you can practice high-quality medicine, build lasting client relationships, and have the opportunity to make a real impact? North Shore Veterinary Clinic is seeking an Associate Veterinarian to join our team on beautiful Oahu.
Our practice is approximately 95% small animal, with opportunities to see some exotic and farm-animal cases. We focus on thoughtful, high-quality patient care while giving our doctors the time and resources to practice medicine well.
Why Join North Shore Veterinary Clinic?
- 30-minute appointments for both wellness and sick visits
- Approximately 15 patients per day
- 2 veterinary technicians per DVM

- Opportunities to collaborate with our partner hospital, Aloha Affordable Veterinary Services
Your Schedule
This is a full-time opportunity with a 4-day workweek, 8:00 AM–5:00 PM, including a 1-hour lunch.
