Job Description

Associate Veterinarian - CityVet Verrado

Looking for a practice where you can do more than wellness appointments? If you
enjoy surgery, dentistry, and the occasional urgent care case and want to
practice alongside a collaborative leader who values communication as much as
clinical excellence, CityVet Verrado may be exactly what you're looking for.

Led by Dr. Amy Jager, CityVet Verrado is a growing hybrid general practice and
urgent care hospital serving the Buckeye and Verrado communities. Dr. Jager
believes veterinary medicine is personal and has built a practice centered on
individualized patient care, strong client relationships, and a supportive team
culture. With clinical interests in pain management, mobility support,
dermatology, dentistry, and soft tissue surgery, she enjoys collaborating with
experienced veterinarians who bring their own passions and ideas to the
practice.

We're looking for an experienced Associate Veterinarian who is confident
practicing independently, enjoys a varied caseload, and is excited to work in a
hospital that blends preventive medicine with same-day urgent care. If you
thrive in surgery, enjoy dentistry, and appreciate the unpredictability of
urgent care without the intensity of a specialty ER, you'll fit right in.

Our hospital was designed to support high-quality medicine with the equipment
and space you need to practice confidently.

Hospital Features

* Five spacious exam rooms
* Large surgical suite
* Expansive treatment area with multiple wet tables
* Digital dental radiography
* Ultrasound
