Job Description
Are you looking to join a genuinely supportive, privately-owned veterinary group where mentorship is real, culture is protected, and work-life balance isn’t just a promise?
I’m proud to be partnering with a long-established small animal group in South Carolina that is growing due to consistent client demand and an outstanding reputation in the community.
This multi-site group blends the stability of decades in practice with forward-thinking leadership. Their hospitals range from newly built, modern facilities to long-standing, beautifully maintained community practices. Across all locations, you’ll find well-equipped treatment areas, IDEXX in-house laboratories, digital radiography, ultrasound, and a microscope fitted with a teaching camera—ideal for collaboration and case discussions.
The team is experienced, cohesive, and refreshingly non-toxic. Several doctors bring over a decade of experience, with additional strengths in behavior, dentistry, soft tissue surgery, and exotics. There’s even an in-house PhD-level comparative pathology expert who enjoys teaching and supporting case workups. New graduates are fully supported through structured mentorship, and experienced veterinarians are encouraged to pursue their own interests while contributing to a collaborative environment.
Support staff is highly capable and deeply trusted, with 2–3 assistants per DVM per shift to ensure smooth workflows and allow you to focus on patient care. Appointment times are 30 minutes, with one dedicated surgery morning per week. There are no weekends, no on-call, and flexibility to work either a 3- or 4-day schedule.
Compensation is strong pro/sal with 401(k) match, comprehensive health coverage, and meaningful CE investment.
