Veterinarian
Join a thriving Calgary small animal practice where surgery and dentistry take centre stage. If you're hands-on, love variety, and want to build your skills in a supportive team environment, this busy clinic is calling.
Work Schedule
Evening shifts until 8:00 PM and Saturday shifts shared with DVM team. These are scheduled shifts, not on-call standby duty.
About the Role
This is a high-energy opportunity at a well-established, community-focused small animal practice that values both surgical excellence and strong client relationships. You'll be joining a supportive, team-driven clinic with a loyal client base and the kind of variety that keeps every day interesting—same-day appointments, walk-in cases, and the chance to work cases through in-house before referring to specialists when appropriate.
The practice manages emergency transfers smoothly (no overnight care on site), so you'll focus on what you do best: diagnostics, surgery, dentistry, and building connections with clients. Evening shifts run until 8:00 PM, and you'll share Saturday rotations with the wider veterinary team.
