Why Join ARISE Veterinary Center

At ARISE Veterinary Center, you'll do more than practice. You'll grow, collaborate, and help shape what's possible in veterinary medicine. You'll join a growing surgical service within a 32,000 square foot specialty and emergency hospital where advanced medicine, mentorship, and teamwork come together to deliver exceptional care for complex cases.

ARISE boasts a highly collaborative 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, including cardiology, radiology, internal medicine, surgery, medical oncology, neurology (coming soon!), and critical care, work closely together to support integrated case management.

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 opening a surgical internship as the surgical team and caseload continue to grow. This creates an environment where teaching, mentorship, and continuous learning are an important part of daily practice.

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
Flexible and rigid video endoscopy
Multiple ultrasound units, including Toshiba Aplio i700, Vivid iQ with 3 cardiac probes, GE Versana, and Mindray

OEC Elite Vascular mobile C arm fluoroscopy for use in the large interventional radiology and surgical suites
Storz laparoscopy and arthroscopy towers
Ligasure bipolar vessel sealing devices

Instrumentation for specialty soft tissue and orthopedic surgeries

As a growing surgical service, we are constantly adding to our equipment inventory and are strongly supported by our hospital administrative team. You'll also find suites dedicated to mechanical ventilation and extracorporeal therapies, as well as a stunning 2,000 square foot conference center, administrative offices, 34 exam rooms, and a designated area for visiting clients.

Our hospital also has a successful blood donor program, ensuring access to blood products including whole blood, pRBC, and plasma for our patients.

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.
