Job Description

Position Purpose

At Corning Animal Hospital, veterinary medicine is more than appointments and procedures—it’s relationships, trust, and a team that truly enjoys working together.

We’re a well-established, three-doctor practice with deep roots in the Corning community and a tight-knit, tenured support staff that keeps our days running smoothly. Now, we’re excited to welcome a new Associate Veterinarian to our team. This is a place where you can actually practice medicine, not just move through cases. You’ll be supported by experienced doctors who value collaboration, communication, and doing right by every patient.

Whether you’re a seasoned veterinarian or a new graduate just starting your journey, you’ll find a team here that’s ready to support you—not overwhelm you.

  • A stable, well-established practice with deep community trust

  • A welcoming environment for all experience levels
  • Who we’re looking for
  • A motivated, compassionate veterinarian
  • Someone who values teamwork and communication
  • A doctor who wants to grow in a supportive, low-ego environment
  • New grads and experienced DVMs are both encouraged to apply

At Corning Animal Hospital, you won’t just be filling a role—you’ll be joining a team that shows up for each other, takes pride in their work, and values doing things the right way.

If that sounds like the kind of place you’ve been looking for, we’d love to meet you.
