Associate Veterinarian
“Tally Oaks Veterinary Wellness Center” – Associate Veterinarian
Position Overview
Do you aspire to work in a veterinary practice that places emphasis on the quality of animal care and not the quantity? Are you someone who believes that a more holistic approach to veterinary medicine can benefit our small animal companions? Are you interested in fear-free and stress-free approaches to small animal veterinary visits? If you answered “YES” to all of these questions, we would love to talk to you about joining our team.
We are currently looking for a part-time experienced associate to work 2-3 days per week. Our regular hours are 8:30 – 5:00 pm and currently there are no evening or weekend hours involved. Additional expertise and/or interest in holistic veterinary medicine would be highly valued. Experience in small animal surgery, ultrasonography and dentistry would also be highly desirable.
Location
Our practice is located four miles from the busy town of Purcellville, VA. Loudoun County, is ranked in the top 10 wealthiest counties in the country. We operate five days a week providing care to dogs, cats, and occasionally horses and small ruminants in northern Virginia.
Practice Overview
Our clinic is nestled in a rustic country setting which enables our clients and patients to explore the more relaxed sights and smells of country life. Our office, equally charming, does not have a large waiting room filled with barking dogs or stressed-out cats, since we schedule our appointments with ample time assuring minimal to no overlap. We diffuse stress-reducing blends of essential oils and play soothing music to make our office more like a spa than a veterinary office.
We focus on a more holistic approach to well-being and would prefer to prevent injuries and disease, rather than treat. We analyze diet, environment, lifestyle and hereditary factors in order to come up with a customized preventative health care plan for our patients. When it is necessary to treat illnesses and injuries; we use a combination of traditional western medicine coupled with complementary therapies such as laser, acupuncture, massage and essential oils.
