Village Veterinary Practice, located in the charming western suburbs of Chicago, is seeking an experienced full-time veterinarian to join our dynamic team! Our AAHA-accredited facility, which has been in the community since 2000, features six exam rooms, a surgical suite, a dental wet table, and a large treatment area, ensuring a comfortable and efficient environment for our staff and patients. Without boarding or grooming services, we are fully focused on providing high-quality patient care.
We offer a full range of modern equipment, including a therapeutic laser, POCUS, digital radiography, digital dental radiography, and a cloud-based PIMS system. We are always open to upgrading equipment to meet the needs of our doctors, and we have plans to update flooring in key areas of the clinic soon.
We specialize in 100% small animal care (70% dogs, 30% cats) and maintain a strong focus on wellness and preventive medicine. Our doctors see an average of 13 patients per day, with 30-minute appointments and special house calls for wellness and euthanasia. We also schedule same-day sick visits to manage overflow and maintain smooth operations. Our team enjoys a noon-to-2 pm break for lunch and catch-up.
Our clinic culture is built around teamwork and work-life balance. We maintain a 2:1 doctor-to-CVT/assistant ratio, with four CVTs on staff, and most of our team members are Fear Free certified. We limit Saturday shifts to once a month and close at 5 pm on Fridays, ensuring that our team has ample time to recharge.
Our Outstanding Benefits Package:
Located in Clarendon Hills, just 30 minutes from Chicago, our practice offers the best of both worlds—access to city amenities and a peaceful, family-friendly community. The area boasts great schools, numerous parks, and excellent dining and shopping options.
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.
