Want to become familiar with emergency medicine but not in a corporate owned high-pressure facility?  Or are you an experienced emergency clinician but want to enjoy emergency medicine at a little slower pace? Animal Emergency Room is an overnight urgent care and emergency hospital located in Northwest San Antonio.  We are privately owned and give our staff veterinarians much autonomy.  Presently, we are seeking a full-time associate to join our skilled team.  The ideal candidate should be personable, confident, and skilled in companion animal emergency medicine.

We employ a technical staff that keeps the clinic running smoothly and efficiently.  Our clinic is equipped with Abaxis hematology equipment, digital radiography, ultrasound, Cardell multiparameter monitor, and state of the art anesthesia equipment. We have a talented group of doctors that are available to mentor or consult on difficult cases.  One of our veterinarians is ABVP board certified in canine and feline practice and has over 15 years of emergency medicine experience.  She speaks on emergency medicine topics at national and regional conferences.  She has mentored many veterinarians and is willing to answer the phone day or night or come to the hospital, if needed, for consultation.

We welcome out of state applicants.  San Antonio is a world-renowned tourist destination.  We not only have the Riverwalk but also a walkable downtown area with music venues, museums and a cultural district.  It is a city with a wide variety of neighborhoods including the million-dollar houses in the Dominion, the historic King William District, Alamo Heights and the Far West side neighborhoods.  The week-long Fiesta celebrates San Antonio’s Hispanic roots with parades, music venues, great food, and festivals.   San Antonio is located in the Hill Country and only a two-hour drive from Austin to the north and Corpus Christi beaches to the south. 

Our benefit package includes licensing fees, liability insurance, association dues, VIN membership, and CE compensation.  Medical, dental, and vision benefits are available.  Salary is negotiable based on experience.

We are a small group of like-minded people and pride ourselves on an enjoyable workplace.  The work schedule is flexible and our caseload is variable, as one never knows what might be walking through that door!  We hope to hear from you soon!
