Our hospital currently uses the Avimark practice management software with plans to go paperless in the near future. Our professional staff is well suited and eager to support and mentor a new graduate. Successful applicant must be licensed to practice veterinary medicine in Missouri and will be required to register with the DEA and BNDD.  Primary duties involve providing general veterinary medical care to the hospital’s patients and service to its clients.  Additional duties will include providing guidance, leadership, training and occasionally supervision to members of the healthcare team that positively influence the level of care and service provided to our clients and patients.  Individual will participate in a rotating schedule designed to equally share duty with the other doctors.  The hospital’s current hours of operation are from 7 am-6 pm M-F and 7 am-1 pm on Saturdays.  Associates are strongly encouraged to develop specific area(s) of interest to enhance our team’s capabilities. Compensation includes a base salary with production bonus and benefits.  Base salary is dependent on the value of the benefits package negotiated but will range from $40,000 to $55,000 for a new graduate.  Available benefits include health insurance, retirement plan, pet benefits, paid time-off, holidays, uniforms, continuing education, licenses, professional liability insurance and possibly others.
