Why Join ARISE Veterinary Center

At ARISE Veterinary Center, you'll do more than practice. You'll have the opportunity to build and shape a new ophthalmology service within a growing 32,000 square foot specialty and emergency hospital. You'll join a highly collaborative team that values advanced medicine, complex case management, teaching, and strong relationships with referring veterinarians.

ARISE boasts a highly experienced team with a strong foundation in emergency and critical care, including board certified Criticalists and VTS in Emergency & Critical Care who provide comprehensive ICU oversight and strong anesthesia support. The hospital's specialty services include cardiology, radiology, internal medicine, surgery, critical care, medical oncology, and neurology (coming soon!). These teams work closely together to support integrated case management and provide comprehensive care for complex patients.

This is an exciting opportunity for an ophthalmologist who wants to establish and grow a service with the support of an established specialty and emergency hospital. You'll have the opportunity to develop the ophthalmology caseload, establish referral relationships, collaborate with the existing specialty services, and help define the resources and equipment needed to support the service as it grows.

The hospital also works closely with local general practitioners who provide a strong referral caseload and a cohesive community focused on excellent long term care for patients. Interns and emergency and critical care residents regularly engage in rotations within our services, and ARISE is expanding its training opportunities as our specialty services and caseload continue to grow.

The sprawling 32,000 square foot facility boasts advanced diagnostic, imaging, and surgical capabilities, including:

GE Mobile 1.5T MRI
128 slice CT with cardiac gating capabilities
Multiple ultrasound units, including Toshiba Aplio i700, Vivid iQ, GE Versana, and Mindray systems
Digital radiography

As a growing specialty service, ophthalmology will have strong support from the hospital administrative team as the service develops and equipment needs are identified. You'll also find suites dedicated to mechanical ventilation and extracorporeal therapies, a 2,000 square foot conference center, administrative offices, 34 exam rooms, and a designated area for visiting clients.

ARISE Veterinary Center was named one of the winners in dvm360's 2025 HospitalDesign360 Competition. The hospital won in the Expansive Category for facilities over 8,000 square feet and was recognized for smart, innovative, compassionate, patient centered design. This recognition reflects the standards ARISE and Ethos are setting across veterinary medicine.
