175 NE Kings Valley Hwy, Dallas, OR, 97338 orchardanimalhospital.comOverview
Orchard Animal Hospital is a privately owned, independent small-animal practice in Dallas, Oregon, and we’re excited about where we’re headed. 🐾 We’re growing, expanding, and building a hospital where veterinarians can practice great medicine without the corporate feel. We believe doctors should have a voice, teams should enjoy working together, and a veterinary career should leave room for a life outside of work. Our hospital has recently expanded, with separate cat-only and dog-only lobbies 🐱🐶, and we continue to invest in our facility, equipment, technology, services, and team. What matters most to us is simple: take great care of our patients, support our clients, take care of our team, and enjoy what we do. We value communication, collaboration, compassion, and work-life balance. ❤️ As we grow, we’re looking for people who want to grow with us and help shape the future of Orchard. 🌳

Requirements
🐾 Come Practice Veterinary Medicine the Way It Should Feel 🩺💛 At Orchard Animal Hospital, we believe great veterinary medicine starts with taking care of the people who provide it. We’re a privately owned, growing small-animal practice in Dallas, Oregon, and we’re building the kind of hospital where veterinarians can do excellent medicine, have a voice in how they practice, and actually enjoy coming to work. We aren’t interested in turning appointments into numbers or pushing doctors to chase corporate production goals. Our focus is on thoughtful medicine, strong client relationships, teamwork, and doing what is right for the patient. 🐶🐱 Our hospital has recently expanded, giving us more room to grow our services, our team, and the level of care we can provide. We’ve also designed the client experience with patient comfort in mind, including a cat-only lobby 🐱 and a separate dog-only lobby 🐶 to help reduce stress before the appointment even begins. We continue to invest in our hospital, equipment, technology, services, and—most importantly—our people. We want our doctors to have the tools and support they need to practice confidently while still preserving the personal, welcoming feel of a true community veterinary hospital. ❤️ What matters to us: 🩺 Quality medicine over rushed medicine 🤝 A team that genuinely helps and supports one another 💬 Open communication and doctors having a real voice in the practice 🌱 Mentorship, learning, and continued professional growth ⚖️ A career that leaves room for a life outside of work 🐾 Building long-term relationships with our clients and their pets 🐱🐶 Creating a calmer patient experience with separate cat and dog spaces 🏡 Being part of the local community—not just another veterinary corporation 😊 Creating a workplace where people can work hard, laugh together, and enjoy what they do Whether you’re an experienced veterinarian looking for more freedom, less corporate pressure, and a healthier balance, or a newer veterinarian who wants real mentorship and the opportunity to grow, we’re willing to build a position around the right person. We’re not simply looking for someone to fill an empty spot on the schedule. We’re looking for a veterinarian who wants to become part of Orchard, help us continue building something special, and hopefully stay with us for a long time. 🌳🐾 If you miss—or are looking for—the part of veterinary medicine that made you want to become a veterinarian in the first place, we’d love to meet you.
