Position Overview:
The Bond Between is seeking a skilled Surgical Veterinarian to join our established Veterinary Center team in Minnetonka on Fridays and Saturdays. While our organization is widely recognized for its rescue and foster programs, our Vet Center operates a full-service, market-rate public clinic that serves as a vital social enterprise for our mission.
This role is focused on client-owned animals and operates with the same clinical standards, pricing structures, and professional expectations as a traditional private practice. However, unlike a corporate or private-equity practice, 100% of the revenue generated by our public clinic is reinvested directly back into our mission, funding the rescue or animals in need as well as providing community services. We are looking for a practitioner who has a history of performing dentals efficiently, including extractions, and who can also do a higher volume of soft tissue surgeries. We need someone who finds fulfillment in knowing their professional expertise provides the financial engine that saves lives.
Position Responsibilities:
1. Surgical Excellence: Perform routine to moderate soft tissue surgeries (e.g., spays/neuters, mass removals, cystotomies, laceration repairs, and exploratory procedures).
2. Comprehensive Dentistry: Perform thorough oral examinations, surgical extractions, and local nerve blocks, working collaboratively alongside our licensed veterinary technicians who conduct full-mouth dental radiographs and prophylaxis.
3. Patient Care & Anesthesia: Follow anesthesia protocols, supervise anesthetic monitoring alongside Licensed Veterinary Technicians, and manage post-operative medication protocols.
4. Client & Team Communication: Communicate effectively with clients by providing post-operative follow-up calls, and maintain clear, ongoing communication with support staff regarding patient discharges and treatment plans.
5. Record Keeping: Maintain prompt, accurate, and detailed electronic medical records.
Required Experience:
● Doctor of Veterinary Medicine Licensure (DVM)
● 4+ years of veterinary clinic experience
● Proven Proficiency in veterinary dentistry (including surgical extractions) and general soft tissue surgery
● Hold current DEA license (The BB will pay to transfer if out of state or reimburse for new) ● Strong leadership and interpersonal skills, with the ability to motivate and engage team members effectively.
● Ability to follow and enforce department and facility procedures and policies ● Experience working with computer applications, clinic software is Covetrus Pulse ● Ability to lift 40-50 pounds daily
