Job Description

GENERAL PRACTICE VETERINARIAN Practice Great Medicine. Make a Difference. Leave the Production Quotas Behind. Gulf Coast Humane Society is growing, and we are looking for General Practice Veterinarians to join our team in beautiful Southwest Florida. In May 2026, we opened a brand-new, 10,000-square-foot veterinary clinic designed to expand access to high-quality, affordable veterinary care in our community. Everything is new, the facility, equipment, exam rooms, treatment areas, and technology and we are building a general practice focused on what matters most: providing excellent medicine and helping people care for the pets they love. We are a nonprofit humane society, not a corporate veterinary practice. That means no production quotas and no pressure to meet sales targets. Our veterinarians can focus on their patients, practice quality medicine, and make decisions based on the needs of the pet and the family in front of them. Our clinicians provide full-service general practice care, including wellness and preventive care, vaccines, diagnostics, sick visits, disease treatment and management, dentistry, and surgical procedures. You will work alongside an experienced veterinary support team in a collaborative environment with other veterinarians available for consultation and support. A BRAND-NEW CLINIC BUILT FOR VETERINARY MEDICINE Our new facility includes: • Eight fully equipped exam rooms • Dedicated treatment area • Dedicated dental suite with digital dental radiography • Dedicated surgery suite for soft-tissue and orthopedic procedures • Digital radiography • Ultrasound • In-house IDEXX diagnostic laboratory, including ProCyte, inVue, Catalyst, and SediVue analyzers • New anesthesia machines and monitoring equipment • Modern equipment and technology throughout A SCHEDULE DESIGNED TO BE SUSTAINABLE We believe veterinarians should have a life outside of work. • Choose a 32-hour, four-day workweek or 40-hour, five-day workweek • No weekends • Scheduled lunch break daily, with the flexibility to work through it if preferred • No production quotas • Competitive salary • Supportive veterinary and leadership team COMPREHENSIVE BENEFITS • Paid time off and paid holidays • 401(k) with employer match • Health, dental, and vision insurance • Life insurance • Professional liability insurance • Florida veterinary license paid • Annual continuing education stipend • One complimentary pet adoption annually • Veterinary care for personal pets at cost MAKE YOUR CAREER PART OF THE MISSION Gulf Coast Humane Society is more than a veterinary practice. Our clinic is part of a nonprofit organization dedicated to strengthening the bond between pets and people throughout Southwest Florida. For our veterinarians, that means the medicine you practice has an impact beyond the exam room. By making veterinary care more accessible, you can help families address medical problems earlier, manage chronic conditions, and keep beloved pets with the people who love them. Because Gulf Coast Humane Society is a nonprofit organization, eligible employees may also qualify for federal Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF), subject to federal program requirements. If you are looking for modern medicine without corporate pressure and want to use your veterinary degree to make a meaningful difference for pets and the people who love them, we would love to meet you.
