Exceptional interpersonal skills, attention to detail, and the ability to communicate complex information clearly to pet owners and team members are highly valued. These skills and qualities are crucial for delivering accurate diagnoses, effective treatment plans, and compassionate care to animal patients while collaborating with veterinary teams.

As one of the region's first true specialty hospitals, we've built a strong reputation in emergency medicine and are actively expanding our specialty offerings. With the recent addition of a Criticalist and plans to continue growing our specialty team, this is a unique opportunity to build a Cardiology service with the support, autonomy, and collaboration needed for long-term success.

Whether you're looking to create a service from the ground up or shape an existing vision into something exceptional, we'll partner with you to build it the way you want.

  • Mix of experienced clinicians and energetic new graduates creates a collaborative, growth-focused environment
  • Doctors work closely together with open case discussions, journal clubs, and a shared commitment to advancing patient care
  • Culture Ambassador Program (Ethos) led by non-leadership team members focused on wellness, resiliency, and sustainable work habits
  • Quarterly wellness initiatives and an in-house wellness program that rewards the entire team for prioritizing well-being
  • Monthly team-building events and active participation in community initiatives including Run for the Zoo, Summer Fest, and local animal welfare organizations
Living in Albuquerque, NM

Experience everything that makes the Southwest unique:

  • Four distinct seasons with over 300 days of sunshine each year
  • Outdoor recreation just minutes away, including hiking, mountain biking, climbing, and skiing
  • Rich Spanish and Native American cultural heritage, renowned cuisine, and a thriving arts scene
  • Affordable cost of living with opportunities for larger homes and acreage
  • Short commutes and an exceptional quality of life

Ethos Veterinary Health, part of the NVA Group, is where you come to practice world-class medicine, and help shape what veterinary care becomes next.

Across our network of 140 specialty and emergency hospitals, science moves forward, standards are elevated, and innovation is put into practice every day. You'll work alongside respected veterinary leaders in academic-caliber hospitals designed for learning, teaching, and discovery.

Here, mentorship is a two-way street. You'll share your expertise, learn from others, and continue to grow, clinically, professionally, and personally.

At Ethos, you inspire hope, deliver exceptional care, and pursue veterinary medicine at its highest level, together.
