Job description

Veterinarian - Medical Director/Partnership Pathway (NO WEEKENDS!)

  • Salary: $145,000 - $165,000 per year + pro-sal (no negative accrual)
  • Sign on Bonus: Up to $25,000
  • Location: 444 E. Northwest Highway, Palatine, IL 60074

Loving Care Animal Hospital is hiring a full-time Veterinarian to provide comprehensive medical, surgical, and dental care to a variety of animals, including cats and dogs. This is an exciting opportunity for a doctor who is not only looking to practice high-quality medicine but is also interested in growing into a Medical Director and potential partner role.

What to Expect

  • A schedule that respects your time. Our last appointment of the day is at 5:30pm (M/T/F) and 6:30pm (W/H). We offer a 4-day work week with consistent weekday hours, no weekends, and no on-call responsibilities. Doctors work until close, with a daily lunch hour reserved between 1pm-2pm.
  • A 2:1staff to doctor ratio. You will have the support-and respect-you need to be excellent for our patients. Our experienced technicians manage all tasks beyond doctor-specific responsibilities, so you can stay focused on practicing medicine and caring for patients.
  • All the benefits you deserve-health, dental, vision, retirement-plus: relocation assistance, CE allowance, uniform allowance, pet discounts, Employee Assistance Program (EAP), and coverage of license fees, dues, and AVMA-PLIT.
  • Paid time off. Catch your breath with Paid Time Off (PTO), paid holidays, and paid CE days every year. Take the time you need to recharge.
  • Partnership opportunities through Veterinary Practice Partners (VPP), where more than 260 partners co-own practices across 185 locations. VPP offers unmatched support in operations, marketing, and finance, allowing you to focus on your passion for veterinary medicine.

Requirements:

  • Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) or VMD degree from an accredited institution
  • Valid veterinary license in the state of Illinois
