Career Center

Animal Diagnostic Clinic, VCA’s leading specialty practice serving North Texas and the Dallas Metroplex area, is seeking veterinarians (non-boarded) to join our team as full time hospitalists. ADC is a high-volume specialty referral practice offering Small Animal Internal Medicine, Cardiology, Medical and Radiation Oncology, and Critical Care cases for direct referrals.

Our team of hospitalists allow for 24 hour 7 day a week doctor care for inpatients. The team of three hospitalists supervise the implementation of treatment plans created by the veterinary specialist and medically manage changes with patient status during non-admitting hours. Additionally, ADC plans to further maximize our hospitalists by implementing after hours admittance only for current ADC patients with acute illness. At this time, we are not a 24-hour walk-in emergency center.

We believe the best candidates for this position are those with an interest in critical care case management and those who wish to participate in the evolution of a rapidly growing hospital and future ER service. Those with an interest and ideas in growing a critical care department should strongly consider this position.

This is a unique, opportunity for an emergency veterinarian or primary care veterinarian to bypass the more stressful aspects of client centric veterinary medicine, while working alongside specialists to grow their skills in intensive case management.

At the ADC our hospitalists enjoy a respectful, inclusive environment, as well as a short workweek, which allows for an improved quality of life.  Our typical hospitalist schedule can be seen below:

Schedule:

• 36 hour workweeks
• 12 hour shifts 3 days a week (that is 4 days off a week!)
• No Holidays

In addition to flexible employment opportunities, our hospital offers a strongly competitive salary that lacks production goals, provides access to high caliber equipment, and fosters an inclusive and respectful hospital culture.

As a member of the VCA family, eligible full-time employees will have access to a comprehensive benefits package, including:
Health & Wellness

• Innovative associate health and well-being department (Headspace app subscriptions, Vault financial wellness tool, and access to additional mental health resources)
