Our team at Plum Creek Veterinary Services is hiring for an associate DVM to join our hospital. We are a four-doctor practice located in the fun community of Castle Rock, just south of Denver. We have been open since 2009 and have a well-tenured team who loves to work together.
We are a small animal general practice clinic, with no on call or after-hours requirements. Our support staff is well trained and they help us run a highly efficient practice. We see a nice volume of clients; not too many that we’re stressed, but enough to keep us busy!
Additionally, we will be relocating our practice in early 2025. We are moving one exit south and into a brand new, stand-alone 7,000 square foot building. It’s an incredible space and we can’t wait!
We are happy to welcome a DVM of any experience level into our group. We value our team culture and are searching for the right person to join us, whether that’s a well-tenured doctor or a new graduate. If this sounds like you, please apply today!
Salary range of $110,000-$130,000/year with an average production percentage of 20-22%
