Requirements
We are working on behalf of a modern, technology-forward small animal clinic in Encino, CA that is looking to welcome a Lead Veterinarian to guide its doctor team. This is a role for an experienced DVM who enjoys great medicine as much as helping other veterinarians grow. You will lead by example on the clinic floor, mentor associate doctors on medical quality, client experience, teamwork, and efficiency, and partner closely with the clinic manager to shape how the clinic runs day to day. The schedule is thoughtfully structured. Each shift follows a single flow, whether that is exams, urgent care, or procedures, so you have room to breathe and focus. A dedicated in-clinic support team is closely involved in patient care, and a 24/7 virtual care team gives your patients an extra layer of support between visits. An in-house technology platform takes much of the hassle out of records and admin, leaving more time for medicine and mentoring. The culture is warm, supportive, and genuinely blame-free, with real attention paid to clinician wellbeing and to making veterinary work sustainable. Onboarding is tailored to you, and there are clear paths for continued career growth. The package includes a guaranteed salary, a sign-on bonus, equity participation potential, no non-compete, paid CE days, and a strong benefits package with a 401(k) match and mental health support.
