Licensed Veterinary Technician

The Oncology Service (TOS) is a multi-facility small animal oncology practice. At TOS, we strive to provide “The Future of Veterinary Cancer Care” to our clients and patients. This means providing compassionate and thoughtful care when pets need it most. It also means access to state-of-the-art cancer therapies, including both medical and radiation oncology across our three hospital locations.

They say laughter is the best medicine unless you’re talking to an owner whose pet has cancer, then chemotherapy is the better option. We strive to find humor in our day while we deliver excellent medicine with the help of chemotherapy. Our hospital is busy, not going to lie, sometimes crazy busy. We cuss, we work, we laugh, we cry. We’re human. We practice our core beliefs of providing the best medicine and offering the best treatment options possible. We’re honest. The work is not always easy, but we try every day to make a difference. We are privileged in veterinary oncology to have some of the sweetest patients and most dedicated clients, and we want to share them with someone who is looking for a career in a specialty that can make a difference in the lives of our patients and their human.

We are looking for an enthusiastic superstar who has compassion, creativity, strong communication skills, is detailed oriented, and uses their initiative and work ethic to complement our team. If this is you, you are a licensed veterinary technician and you possess the following, we want to meet you:

· Interest in learning new topics and skills, including chemotherapy and radiation oncology.

· Desire to make positive impacts on the lives of people and pets every single day at work

· Commitment to maximizing the quality of life of pets

· Understanding of the depth of the human-animal bond
