State Client Jobs in Chicago, IL (NOW HIRING)

What if you could help build something, instead of just stepping into a role that already exists?
Midwest Bird & Exotic Animal Hospital has been a Chicago institution for 20+ years, with an exotic medicine reputation that draws clients from five states. Now, with a larger facility opening just blocks away this spring, we're growing our canine and feline services into an all-day practice. This is a rare chance to shape that growth from the ground up, in a brand-new space built for it.
The Opportunity:
• Help build our daytime canine and feline caseload, currently rooted in exotics, into an all-day general practice
• A distinctive mix of growing daytime GP and extended-hours ER exposure, with emergency care beginning after 4 PM
• Flexibility to shape your canine and feline caseload around your interests, with or without exotics
• CE stipend, peer learning, leadership support, and potential ownership pathways through NVA
• At least 3-5 years of experience as a canine & feline DVM in GP or urgent care is required for this role
The Resources:
• A brand-new, larger facility opening a few blocks away this spring
• 11 exam rooms, 2 surgery suites, and a dedicated dental suite planned
• Dedicated spaces designed to support canine, feline, emergency, and exotic medicine
• A multi-state client base and an established, well-known referral reputation
The Lifestyle:
• Set in Elmwood Park, minutes from Chicago's Northwest Side and its rich Italian and Polish dining scene
• Quick access to River Forest, Oak Park's Frank Lloyd Wright architecture, and the forest preserves along the Des Plaines River
• An easy drive or Metra ride into downtown Chicago
ProSal Compensation & Benefits:
• Starting salary of $125,000-$140,000 plus production bonuses
• 401(k) with company match
• Access to CE courses (dentistry, ultrasound, surgery, and more) at NVA's nearby PetOne Training Center in Addison, IL
• Professional liability coverage, DEA and state licensing, and VIN membership
• PTO, paid CE, and CE/licensing reimbursement
• Comprehensive health insurance coverage plans
• Generous staff pet discounts
• Final compensation commensurate with experience, skills, schedule, and scope of services provided
