We are currently looking to add at least 2 additional veterinarians to our practice. It is located in South Texas midway between Corpus Christi and San Antonio.
The facility is currently undergoing a renovation and expansion and will be about 15,000 sq feet when complete this fall. It will have a separate large and small animal surgery room, 3 exam rooms, indoor equine treatment/evaluation center and covered pens/hydraulic working area for cattle. There is at least one small and one large animal tech per veterinarian. We stress continuing ed and [professional improvement yet also stress the importance of family. Emergency calls average 3/week on an annual basis. The associate is paid the emergency fee. Work week is 42.5 hours per associate plus every third Saturday. We do a minimal number of emergencies, and want to keep it that way. We want people to work hard during business hours, then enjoy your personal time after. It is very rare to stay late after office hours.
We are a beta site for Abaxis and have their latest products to use. We use Avimark, and are not completely paperless, but close. We have 2 digital DR radiograph systems and digital ultrasound. We have digital dental rads plus high speed dental work stations. We have full power orthopedic equipment and a state of the art small animal surgery facility. All anesth. animals are on iv catheter and fluids, all surgeries are cap/mask/gown. You will not go on a call or see an appointment without a technician to assist. I’m the first to admit this style practice is not for everyone, nor is it for every situation, but it’s how we choose to do it, and are looking for associates that want to practice at this level.
Base salary will range from 85-125 based on experience, but we will also track production and will pay 22.5% of production if it is more than salary. This is not pro-sal, it is a production bonus. This is on a monthly basis, and if you do not meet production one month, that will not be carried forward. Each month is independent. In addition to salary, we offer a simple IRA match, Health insurance, Long term disability, Association dues, Malpractice insurance, All licenses, Continuing ed allowance, and 2 weeks vacation. We will also offer a signing bonus for moving expenses.
Our goal as a practice is to commit to having the best infrastructure, equipment, and staff we can. We are wanting the same from associates and are insistent on finding people that truly like practicing veterinary medicine.
