Career Center

We are seeking to add an associate to our four doctor practice. Established in 1997, Animal Hospital of Waterford is a privately owned and offers a family-like environment with a knowledgeable and hardworking support staff.  We will gladly hire an experienced Veterinarian or a new graduate (all our Veterinarians enjoy offering mentorship to new graduates; you can do this and we will help you!) 

Our cases vary and will keep you motivated and interested. We are looking for a mixed animal practitioner who will bring their unique interests and talents to our practice. Our species breakdown is 20% dairy, 20% equine, 5% small ruminant and 55% small animal. In addition, based on Dr. preferences, we will examine and treat almost any animal from reindeer to poultry and even a few exotics; there are many opportunities for you to grow your areas of clinical interest with us.  Services provided include small and large animal surgery, ultrasound, dentistry, behavior consultation, and dairy herd health (with reproductive ultrasound.) On site we have digital radiography, ultrasound and a full Idexx lab. For ambulatory services we utilize portable digital radiography, portable Boviscan reproductive ultrasound and  DeWALT equine power float equipment. On-call duties are shared and for large animal only. After hours small animal emergencies are referred to the local emergency center. 

Two years ago we moved into a brand new, purpose built 6000 sq. ft. facility. It is spacious, efficient, and a great place to practice! This modern facility also houses our two fully equipped farm call trucks. For a virtual tour go to our web site under "about us".  

We are centrally located between Cleveland, Buffalo and Pittsburgh. With close proximity to Lake Erie and Allegheny National Forest, Northwestern Pennsylvania offers 4 seasons of outdoor activities. Locally we have beaches, boating, and fishing on Lake Erie. Nearby are downhill and cross country ski lodges, and camping and hiking in the Allegheny National Forest. For the team sports enthusiast Erie has its own baseball and ice hockey teams. There are several universities in the region as well. The area is beautiful, the cost of living is reasonable, and we are a lot of fun! Check us out at www.vetsatwaterford.com.

Full time associates can expect a total pay package between $100,000 and $150,000+ depending on caseload and experience. Salary is commensurate with experience. Our schedule is reasonable because we think personal time is important for everyone! We offer an excellent benefits package including paid emergencies (you keep 80% of gross income from your emergency calls, this is in addition to your salary), health insurance, licensing, liability insurance, AVMA and other professional dues, CE, Simple IRA, paid time off, and a clothing stipend.
