Associate DVM in Savannah, GA (4 day week, no on call) 🐾

We are working on behalf of a privately owned small animal practice in Savannah, GA that is looking to add an Associate Veterinarian to its team. The clinic opened a year ago in a bright, fully renovated space and has already built a loyal, community focused client base of local dog and cat owners. This is genuine general practice: wellness and preventive care, routine spays and neuters, dentals, mass removals and common soft tissue surgery, with complex orthopedics referred out. The hospital has four exam rooms, a dedicated surgery suite, an isolation room and dog runs, and is equipped with digital X-ray, ultrasound, a dental unit and dental radiography, with most lab work run in house. Records are fully paperless on Pulse and the team uses text messaging to stay in touch with clients. Appointments are thirty minutes, with technicians taking histories, settling patients and collecting samples so the doctor can focus on the case. The goal is a two doctor model with dedicated surgery days and dedicated appointment days, giving the associate a four day week with no on call, no emergency cover and no routine weekends. The owner has practiced locally for fourteen years, is in the building every day and is happy to assist in surgery, talk cases through and support a doctor who wants to build their skills. Equally, there is no pressure to take on surgery if that is not your interest. The culture is small, collaborative and genuinely front and back integrated, with everyone pitching in, alongside regular community outreach including fundraisers, adoption events and a planned quarterly spay and neuter clinic. There is real flexibility on how you start, whether that is full time, part time or a few relief shifts to see how the fit feels.
