If you’re passionate about making a difference in the lives of pets and their families, we’d love to meet you!

 

Why Choose Wilmington Animal Hospital?

  • Comprehensive Care for our Patients: We offer an extensive range of services, including home visits and access to a board-certified radiologist, chiropractor, and surgeon. We also offer advanced technologies like dental radiology, ultrasound, a vessel-sealing device for surgery, and electrocautery.
  • Supportive Environment: Our collaborative team of doctors and highly trained support staff have biweekly meetings for ongoing education and case discussions, ensuring everyone’s voice is heard.
  • Work/Life Balance: We refer emergencies to local ERs and specialty centers, allowing you to focus on providing quality care during the day without on-call or after-hours responsibilities.
  • Flexible Scheduling: Our doctors work 33 hours per week, ensuring extra time for note-taking and client communication.
     
  • Growth & Mentorship Opportunities: We offer robust leadership training, and an extensive mentorship program developed by one of our experienced doctors, ensuring our new grads receive the guidance and support they need!

About the Role:

We welcome both new graduates and experienced veterinarians!

  • Longer Appointments: We prioritize longer appointment times—30 minutes for wellness or sick visits, and 20 minutes for rechecks or shelter exams.
  • Surgery and Dentistry: An interest in surgery and/or dentistry is a plus! We are happy to provide mentorship and hands-on experience for new grads.
  • Opportunity to work at multiple locations: Our "Lend-a-Hand" program offers doctors the chance to work additional hours at nearby locations for time-and-a-half pay.
  • Team Support: Each doctor is paired with 2.5 to 3 skilled technicians and has access to 4 exam rooms to ensure efficiency. Our doctors have the option for client communications using emails, text messages, and phone calls.
