Career Center

Stewartville Animal Clinic (SAC) located just South of Rochester, MN [home of the Mayo Clinic] is looking to add a full-time and/or part-time DVM to our small-town community veterinary clinic. We are open to fulling a full-time or part-time role as we are prioritizing finding the best fit for our clinic and team.

This position will require you to work 2-4 days a week as a solo practitioner; no late evenings or weekends and no on-call. You will have a lot of autonomy to "take the wheel and drive" to practice medicine your way. You will have significant support from the Clinic Manager, with oversight from the owner, to practice high-quality, compassionate, veterinary medicine. 

We have a robust team that includes many experienced and talented CVTs, Assistants, and receptionists to support the addition of more doctors to our team. We believe that adequate staff is having approximately 2-3 CVTs per DVM with additional support from Assistants and Receptionists. Our goal is to maximize the efficiency of our DVMs by utilizing support staff effectively.

Our clinic ownership and leadership are committed to ensuring SAC is a great place to work. The leaders work hard to ensure our team, including doctors, are supported and happy in a positive and team-oriented environment. Some of the things we do include:

• Fostering autonomy as veterinarians; we welcome and appreciate different styles and/or perspectives of practicing veterinary medicine.
• Encouraging and supporting professional growth and knowledge; it’s important that our DVM’s feel they can pursue their specific interests. We believe supporting passion/interests will lead to higher job satisfaction for our employees, more diversified clinic offerings, and ultimately better patient care. Some examples of specialties/interests we already have or would like to add include:
  • Surgery and/or dentistry
  • Ultrasound
  • Exotic animals
  • Nutrition, Behavior, Reproduction, etc.
  • Ophthalmology, Cardiology, etc.
  • Alternative therapies such as acupuncture, chiropractic, and other complementary Eastern/Holistic medicine techniques
  • And many more

About Us
Stewartville Animal Clinic is a companion animal practice located 10 minutes South of Rochester, MN [home of the Mayo Clinic]. The clinic has been an integral piece of the community since 1970; the former owner retired in 2016 and has been owned by Dr. Garren Kelly since. We also have a sister clinic, Meadow View Veterinary Clinic, that is less than 20 minutes Northwest of SAC. Stewartville is a small-town community but close to the thriving city of Rochester; people get the best of both worlds living in this area.

SAC is designed to facilitate veterinarians in providing patients with quality veterinary care with tools and technology to make our processes safe and efficient. We have:

• Electronic medical records [Avimark]
• Digital radiography & ultrasound
• In-house Idexx equipment & Idexx reference laboratory

We are looking for a DVM that can communicate effectively, has a desire to learn and grow, and is self-motivated.

We feel strongly about supporting all our staff with a relatively flexible schedule that balances clinic needs with personal needs in a way that is fair for everyone. Our Stewartville location is not open evenings or weekends, there is no on-call. Our wages are competitive with industry and the local market, and we offer many great benefits.
