Kentwood Cat Clinic and Cat Clinic North in Grand Rapids are looking for an associate veterinarian to join our Gold certified Feline Friendly two-location practice. We are a full-service practice dedicated to providing quality veterinary care and well-being for cats in two locations. Our facilities are equipped for advanced soft tissue surgical procedures and radioactive iodine treatment for hyperthyroidism. We have surgical and therapeutic lasers, digital X-ray and dental X-ray, and ultrasound. Our experienced and long tenured team, which includes seven LVTs and four doctors, maintains an enjoyable, quiet, and cat-friendly work atmosphere committed to the needs of our doctors, patients, and clients. Our founder is Board Certified in Feline Practice by the American Board of Feline Practitioners and we focus on excellent internal medicine, behavior, and dental care to allow our patients to have long and healthy lives.
An experienced feline veterinarian would be ideal for us, and we encourage all our doctors to focus on areas of feline practice that they are passionate about. However, feline focused new grads are encouraged to apply. This is the perfect opportunity for a new graduate to be successful under the mentorship and guidance of our collaborative team of doctors with a wide range of experience and areas of interest.
The Grand Rapids area is an ideal mix of a fast-paced urban environment for those who prefer to spend time downtown, and the more relaxed suburban feel of the surrounding cities, including Kentwood, where our flagship location is situated. With the close proximity of our clinics to Downtown Grand Rapids, live shows, museums and upscale dining are just a quick drive away, while the surrounding suburbs offer family-friendly amenities and more casual fun.
The natural beauty of Lake Michigan is within an hour's drive, and other more rural settings for outdoor activities and relaxation are nearby as well. The area provides plenty of amenities to explore, such as shopping, a great restaurant scene, craft breweries, entertainment, hiking trails, snowmobiling, and lake activities. This community offers something special for everyone. We offer competitive salary, medical benefits (including health, dental, and vision), 401(k), employee assistance program (EAP), CE allowance, vacation, dues, liability coverage, mentorship and so much more!

I would highly recommend anyone to work for a Vetcor clinic because of all the available resources they offer to their employees! These resources vary from continuing education to the importance of mental health and not burning out. Stonebridge has been one of the best places I have worked and has done nothing but help me pursue my goal of becoming an LVT.
There are programs including VetLife Days and Lend-a-Hand that allow you to spend time at other clinics. I have met some wonderful colleagues this way and have also been able to expand my leadership skills within Vetcor. I actually learned that I love teaching and supporting other veterinarians, especially new graduates. I love soft tissue surgery, so to be able to pass on that knowledge and skill set to new grads, giving them the confidence and skills they need to excel, has been very rewarding. It has been an amazing journey with Vetcor so far and I am excited to continue to be part of this amazing group.
The mentorship and advice from the Vetcor Chief of Staff Advisors have helped me become a better veterinarian and surgeon. They have filled me with confidence in order to become a better leader. Vetcor has been a great corporation to work for.
There is a career path for everybody and not a one size fits all approach.
Join a group of motivated veterinary professionals while taking advantage of employee programs, resources, and fantastic benefits. Join one of our many collaboration groups for Hospital Managers, Techs, and Vets! Plus, we love supporting growth in your teams' desired career paths.
