We strive to be a hospital where doctors and support staff say, " I love to come to work! " We also believe in paying our doctors above recommended benchmarks. 

Advanced Animal Care opened in December of 2008 as the area's first 24 hour animal hospital and remains the only hospital of its kind in the area.  AAC has experienced amazing growth with a team of new graduates and experienced veterans.  We now operate in three towns with a team of doctors working together.  Our mission: to be a place where clients are never turned away and the staff look forward to coming to work.  It's not a goal to achieve, but a path to follow.  

This family owned hospital has a small practice, non-corporate feel, yet with significant growth and resources.  In fact, we just added CT (computed tomography). 

We are looking for someone interested in building a foundation for a rewarding future.

About Advanced Animal Care

Advanced Animal Care, ten doctor hospital group. Advanced Emergency (24/7), Advanced Animal Care General, Advanced Animal Care Berea and Waco Animal Hospital. Advanced Animal Care Emergency opened in December of 2008 as the area's first 24 hour animal hospital. In the last few years, AAC has experienced dramatic growth in our Richmond location with a team of new graduates and experienced veterans. AACER is a modern, 5,000 sq. ft. facility with five exam rooms, but this one owner hospital has a small practice, non-corporate feel. Our emergency hospital is newly remodeled to allow for a larger treatment floor and surgical suite. Advanced General opened in October 2023 to service the general practice clients that were needing care during the day. It is located directly behind our Emergency hospital and allows our clients better access to great care whether it is during the day or after hours. Advanced Animal Care Berea is only 15 minutes away from the 24 hour hospital and got a brand new building in June of 2022. Waco Animal hospital is our oldest clinic that opened in 2022 and is a one doctor practice 20 minutes from our 24 hour hospital. We offer hospitalization and e...mergency care that was formerly unavailable in Madison County and we are building a reputation for quality, emergency care in the region. We highly value exceptional treatment of clients and positive, respectful staff relationships. Associates are not micromanaged but are expected to be productive.
