NVA owns over 500 companion animal veterinary hospitals providing a full range of medical and surgical services.

NVA was founded in 1996 by Stanley Creighton DVM, with an emphasis on supporting local medical standards as established by individual hospitals and practitioners. He believed then as we do now, that veterinary medicine is best practiced when veterinarians craft their own hospital and community specific strategies for high quality patient care and client services.

Dr. Creighton’s vision for NVA has continued to develop. Today we strive to embrace the philosophies of Servant Leadership as we move forward in developing leadership teams within individual hospitals. We are looking for leaders to join our group who are passionate about improving the lives of pets and demonstrate the ability to:

Empower others,

Contribute to a candid, fair, and caring work environment, and

Serve others.

Due to our continued growth, we are seeking to hire Hospital Managers to join our practices in the San Francisco Bay Area.
