We would love to welcome the right candidate to our busy, 5 doctor, frill service veterinary hospital in sunny southern California. Very few places in the U.S. offer the combination of career and recreational opportunities that define the Los Angeles area. Located in the San Fernando Valley, north of the city, our newly remodeled facility offers state of the art diagnostics, brand new dental and surgical suites, and a well-trained and welcoming staff, many of whom have been with our hospital family for decades. We pride ourselves on successful long term relationships with our clients, their pets, and our priceless staff. We have overnight turnaround with IDEXX Laboratories as well as a full in-house IDEXX lab, digital radiography, digital dental radiography, a dedicated chemotherapy preparation facility, digital ultrasound, a cold-laser therapy machine, and a Snyder ICU unit. Enhanced training and experience are also available through specialists in surgery, cardiology, and internal medicine that visit our facility and consult on cases weekly and from established telecommunication contracts with an additional internist, an oncology practice, and a specialty dental practice. This is an excellent opportunity for a new or recent graduate to enhance their skill set through access to a number of qualified mentors. We offer a highly competitive compensation package including a signing bonus, health insurance, retirement accounts, flexible scheduling (after hours emergencies are referred to a nearby emergency facility), care of personal pets (who are also immediate members of the family), and a generous CE account (lifelong  learning is a key to the successful practice of medicine). We understand how important work life balance is to our mental and emotional wellbeing and, as such, we welcome part time as well as full time candidates. E-mail plvet1@aol.com.
