We are growing at Sherwood Family Pet Clinic!
Our hospital is currently searching for a new DVM to join our team. We are a large 7-doctor team, hoping to add a new team member to help us grow.
Our hospital was established in 1996; moving to a new building in July 2022. We are a well-equipped hospital with seven exam rooms, two full dental suites each with their own dental x-ray, a surgical suite with smoke evacuation and hepa-filter airflow in surgery room, 40 watt surgery laser, Voyant vessel sealing system, electrosurgery, Lifewindow vital sign monitors, and Hallowell anesthesia ventilators in surgery and dental suites, digital x-ray, in-house laboratory, diagnostic ultrasound, endoscope, in-hospital camera patient monitoring system, and a paperless medical record system.
In addition to our incredible facility, we have a highly capable support staff who work closely with our doctors. We have a friendly and supportive work environment, with a focus on mentoring, teamwork, and continuous improvement. We pride ourselves on being fast-paced, while valuing quality patient care.
We are happy to support a new teammate with any level of experience, so if this sounds like a team you’d like to join, please apply today!
