Industry-Leading PTO Program

Here, they like to call it TRUE PTO-because here, you can actually take personal time off without worrying about making up lost production when you get back. Production-wise it's like you never left. Relaxation-wise, it's a game-changer.

High Producers Bonus

Eligible DVMs will earn a bonus pay-out of up to 10% additional production in the month after contract renewal. The bonus rate will be determined by their contracted production rate and the amount of excess production. Here, you can earn a greater share of the success you help create. And the sky is the limit!

Maternity Leave

FULL PAY for four weeks. Because mamas deserve it. Plus short-term disability at 60% of your salary (six weeks for natural birth, eight weeks for C-section), and all still in addition to your PTO. (P.S. We definitely want baby pics when you're ready to share!)

Leadership Academy

Here, they never stop investing in their people. And they're turning their great veterinarians into great leaders, as well. This executive education experience is designed to develop your business leadership acumen to drive success around your hospital's culture, team development, and operations.

So, what's the culture like here?

In a word...Amazing. (There's a reason why they have the highest DVM retention rate in the country. Maybe it's the culture. Maybe it's the stacked benefits package. Maybe it's both.)
