Amc Associate Jobs in Texas (NOW HIRING)

AMC Kingsville is proud to be part of National Veterinary Associates (NVA), a network of over 1,000 veterinary hospitals that share a commitment to providing exceptional care for pets and animals. As part of the NVA family, we offer a supportive and dynamic environment where clinical year veterinary students can gain invaluable hands-on experience.
About Our Hospital:
Located just 40 minutes south of Corpus Christi, AMC Kingsville is a well-established, multi-doctor mixed animal practice, with the vast majority of our caseload consisting of small animals. Our modern facility includes advanced diagnostic tools such as digital X-rays, ultrasound, and in-house Idexx labs. With nearly 50 years of service, our collaborative team is dedicated to providing high-quality, compassionate care.
While we are equipped to treat both small and large animals, our current large animal caseload is limited. Students should expect a predominantly small animal experience, with occasional exposure to large animal cases depending on the week.
Externship Details:
Externs will work closely with our veterinarians to gain experience in:

• Physical exams and diagnostics.
• Surgical procedures and dentistry services.
• Treatment plans and medical management.
• Client communication and teamwork.

Externships typically range from 2 to 8 weeks and offer exposure to primarily small animal medicine, with a sprinkle of large animals.
Stipend:
We offer up to a $1,500 stipend to help with travel and living expenses for clinical year externs. Click HERE to view list of stipend amounts and HERE for details on the stipend program.
Location:
Kingsville, TX, offers a unique blend of small-town charm and access to big-city amenities. Nestled in the heart of South Texas, the town is just a short drive from Corpus Christi's beautiful beaches and outdoor recreational spots like hunting, fishing, and hiking. Enjoy the best of both worlds - peaceful, country living with easy access to the vibrant culture of San Antonio and the rich history of Mexico, both only a couple of hours away. Kingsville is perfect for those who love adventure, nature, and a relaxed lifestyle.
Who Should Apply:
This opportunity is ideal for clinical year veterinary students mainly interested in small animal practice with some interest in mixed animal medicine. You'll gain real-world experience in a supportive, learning-focused environment alongside a dedicated and experienced veterinary team.
