We are seeking Full-Time Veterinarians (part-time positions considered) who bring strong clinical skills, enthusiasm, excellent communication, and a good sense of humor to our team.

Typical full-time schedules involve three to four 12-hour shifts per week (around 40-42 hours) with both daytime and overnight options available.
Since our opening in 2020, we’ve been committed to creating a hospital culture where staff feel respected, valued, and supported. Our veterinarians work together closely, sharing knowledge and collaborating on cases for the best outcomes. With a large and growing support staff, our entire team is dedicated to providing excellent care, and we emphasize continuous learning and skill development.

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.
