Opportunity to grow small animal services in beautiful southcentral Missouri!

Barn Hollow Vet Service's small animal caseload is ready to grow-it just needs a veterinarian who can give it focused attention rather than fitting it around cattle calls. This is the opportunity: a dedicated small animal role within a team where large animal medicine is already well covered, giving you the space and support to build something meaningful.

Highlights

• A close-knit team where large and small animal medicine both receive dedicated focus
• A rare chance to expand an established small animal practice with a loyal client base
• Small-town life in the Missouri Ozarks, with scenic riverways, wild horses, and Springfield less than two hours away

About Us

Are you ready to join a veterinary team where your passion, curiosity, and compassion truly matter? At Barn Hollow Veterinary Services, we're more than just a clinic - we're a close-knit family dedicated to making a difference for our patients, our clients, and each other.

At BHVS, you'll work alongside:

• Dr. Mikael Orchard (MU '04) and Dr. Jonny Bell (MU '08) - lead veterinarians with a passion for production medicine and a willingness to jump in when cases overlap
• Dr. Bryce Friga (Mizzou '27) joining the team this spring and sharing time between large and small animal medicine
• Dr. Kim Ehlers (MU '89) small animal veterinarian providing relief support to help us meet client needs

Our doctors lead with expertise, warmth, and genuine care for animals and people. They set the tone for a team that supports one another, celebrates wins, and grows through every challenge.

Every day, our team is united by a shared love for animals and a commitment to excellent care. We stay because we respect one another, work toward common goals, and take pride in being part of a place where everyone supports each other.

At Barn Hollow, we live by these core values:

• Compassion & Empathy: We treat every patient and client like family.
• Honesty & Integrity: Trust is at the heart of our relationships.
• Teamwork: Every role is valued, and everyone's voice matters.
• Client Education: We empower our clients to make the best choices for their animals.
• Patient-First Mindset: The well-being of our patients always comes first.

About This Role

As our dedicated small animal veterinarian, you'll lead routine wellness care, vaccinations, diagnostics, and elective soft tissue surgeries-including spays, neuters, and more-with the support to grow the caseload over time instead of fitting it around large animal appointments. Your days will be busy and steady, with work-ins and the occasional emergency, but still balanced enough to keep lunch breaks a reality.

About You

You'll thrive here if you're a small animal veterinarian who wants to build strong client relationships, practice quality medicine, and be part of a team that values both skill and heart.

• Patient-Focused Clinician: You enjoy combining strong diagnostic, treatment, and preventive-care skills to help pets live healthier lives.
• Confident Surgical Interest: You see routine surgery as a meaningful part of practice and are excited to keep growing your skills
• Genuine Compassion: You help pets and their people feel heard, supported, and cared for through every visit.
• Adaptable Problem-Solver: You can stay steady and solutions-focused when the schedule shifts, work-ins appear, or the day brings something unexpected.
• Collaborative Teammate: You communicate clearly, build trust with clients and staff, and contribute to a team culture where people support one another.
