Two full time job openings for small animal veterinarians!
We are a small animal clinic with two locations, and are looking to add a GP vet to each location. Both our Chester and Brattleboro locations are full service, multi-doctor hospitals. Rockingham Veterinary Clinic has been around since the 1980s, but recently moved to a spacious, newly renovated facility in the heart of Chester. Rockingham Veterinary Clinic was purchased in late 2019 by Vermont New Hampshire Veterinary Clinic, a 9 doctor AAHA accredited mixed animal hospital located 30 minutes south in East Dummerston, VT. VTNH Veterinary Clinic was established in the 1950s and has been growing ever since. The two clinics support each other (we refer to them as sister clinics), and doctors practice at both locations. We continue to grow and expand our clientele, yet strive to retain that small-town feel. VTNH does also offer equine care as a separate part of the clinic (no equine duties required for the jobs listed).
What makes us different:
- We are a small, vet owned group practice who welcome both long-term associates and those interested in potential future ownership. Your opinion matters either way!
- Collegial, friendly environment with lots of collaboration - there is always someone to bounce a case off of.
- Our staff and practice manager support you, and our front desk staff does an amazing job at booking (no double-booked appointments!).
- Flexible work schedule – if you prefer evenings, great! Need ¾ days to pick up kids? Only want to work days? We can make that happen.
- Weekly doctor meetings – owners and practice manager all come, and once a month everyone attends and has a voice! We are always striving to improve.
- Southern Vermont is a really special place - beautiful scenery, lots of outdoor activities (hiking, horseback riding, mountain biking), art, and close to attractions like Boston, Killington and Stowe ski resorts.
Offerings
- Relocation bonus $5,000.
- No on-call duties
Chiropractic and acupuncture certification beneficial, but not required.
The finer details
- Mentorship is encouraged, and available for those who need it, as there are other doctors on during week days
- Four, 8-hour days/week. Appointments end an hour prior to shift end (time for notes and call backs!).
- Pay is salaried per diem, and dependent upon experience.
- Paid vacation, health insurance stipend, dues/licenses/DEA/liability insurance covered, CE stipend and paid CE days.
- We currently only offer evening appointments on Thursday at RVC; VTNH offers them Monday through Friday.
- Urgent hours are 8am-5pm Saturday (appts booked 9-12) and Sunday, with an assistant available, for current clients in good standing. Urgent hours are offered at VTNH to simplify staffing, and are only a part of this job listing if the applicant is interested.
Start-date is flexible. Our ideal candidate is experienced, but we will consider the right new graduate. An interest in surgery, including dentistry, is desired but not required.
Both locations have easy access to the highway for travel, and traffic is not an issue.
Please contact Robert Sturk (practice manager) at rsturk@vtnhvet.com, Dr Warner at drwarner@vtnhvet.com or call VTNH directly at 802-254-5422 and speak with our phenomenal front desk staff!
