Job Description

Bond Vet is on a mission to strengthen the human-animal bond through better pet care. We offer primary and urgent care, so we’re there for pets when they need us most. Our clinics are designed with pets and people in mind: warm, friendly, and highly sniffable. We balance this design with a strong focus on technology, all built in-house, which means we can easily innovate our systems to improve the veterinary team, pet, and client experience.

Bond Vet is building the next generation of veterinary clinics from the ground up — and we’re looking for a motivated Board-Certified Veterinary Surgeon to join our team. With no ER duties, no on-call, a reliable schedule and opportunities to mentor as desired, this is an exciting opportunity for a surgeon looking for excellent quality of life in an engaging, culture-forward environment.

The next member of Bond’s expanded specialty services will provide specialty-level surgery consultations and procedures to our large network of pets and pet parents, as well as to external hospital referrals. A pilot program for outpatient surgery has been a massive success, and we are ready to expand our offerings and help more pets.

What You'll Do

  • Perform soft tissue and orthopedic procedures on an outpatient basis
  • Perform consultations for Bond clients as well as referrals from external hospitals
  • Partner with our Bond General Practice and Urgent care providers, creating a complete ecosystem for surgery and long term follow up

  • Board certification or residency-trained and licensed in good standing or be able to obtain licensure to practice as a veterinary professional in New Jersey and/or New York State.
  • DEA licensure and Controlled Dangerous Substances (CDS) certificate if needed for all states for clinics under supervision.

  • Doctor-led company with a collaborative, supportive culture.
  • Competitive compensation and comprehensive benefits package.

  • Tech-enabled medicine. Early access to tools that reduce admin and raise quality (AI scribing, inventory automation, Cubex) plus our Bond Vet Academy (spatial computing/Apple Vision Pro) for 3D procedural training.
  • Career pathways & mentorship. Develop AMD/RMD/MD leaders; grow your own scope with true sponsorship.

Salary Range: $220,000 – $275,000 annually with above market production. Exact salary will be dependent on the candidate’s schedule, skills, location and experience level.
