Overview
Surgery Veterinary Assistant Jobs in Greer, SC at Bedrock Veterinary Specialists Greer
Bedrock Veterinary Specialists is looking for an incredible team at our brand-new specialty surgery practice in Greenville, South Carolina! This is a rare opportunity to build a surgical specialty hospital from the ground up. As our second location, you’ll have the backing of an established organization with nearly 70 years of combined surgical experience — but the freedom to help define the culture from day one. If you’ve ever wanted to put your fingerprint on something truly new in veterinary medicine, this is it. Our name reflects our philosophy. Bedrock was built on two foundational principles: high-quality surgery with a low complication rate, and people with incredible character and skill to deliver it. These two principles are the bedrock from which we grow. At Bedrock, we look for teammates, not employees. Whether you’re caring for patients in the treatment area or welcoming clients at the front desk, we’re looking for people who bring humility, empathy, positivity, and professionalism to everything they do — team members who understand that accountability is rooted in commitment to each other and to our patients, and who help foster an environment where direct communication, mutual respect, and collaboration come naturally. Greenville, South Carolina is an incredible place to live with a one-of-a-kind downtown and easy access to both the mountains and the beach. Building something from scratch in a city like this doesn’t come along often. If this aligns with your values, we would love to hear from you.

Prepare and Support Every Surgery: You’ll prepare patients for surgery by clipping and aseptically scrubbing surgical sites, assist with positioning and restraint, support sterile technique in the surgical suite, and help with surgical pack preparation, instrument cleaning, and autoclaving/sterilization.
Provide Post-Operative and Compassionate Care: You’ll monitor patients during recovery, manage pain, and ensure patient comfort—all while maintaining a clean, organized, and sterile facility.
Create a Positive Client Experience: You’ll discharge patients, review post-surgical treatment plans, incision care, and follow-up instructions with clients, and assist with client service operations such as answering phones and scheduling appointments.
Drive Operational Excellence: You’ll accurately maintain medical records, prescriptions, and invoices using our computer systems, support surgical suite turnover between procedures, help monitor surgical supply inventory, and assist with training new teammates.
