Full-Time or Part-Time Associate Veterinarian
The Village Veterinary Hospital – Sedona, AZ
Hey Class of 2025/2026 (and recent grads)! Are you a fresh DVM ready to step out of vet school and into a practice that actually invests in your success? At The Village Veterinary Hospital in breathtaking Sedona, Arizona, we're not just hiring—we're looking for eager new veterinarians to join our close-knit team and grow with us. This is your chance to start strong in a modern, supportive companion-animal hospital surrounded by red rock magic that recharges you every single day.
Why New Grads Thrive Here:
- Dedicated Mentorship & Hands-On Growth — Our experienced doctors (including Dr. Scudder, Dr. Kashak, and the team) love guiding new grads. Expect one-on-one case reviews, surgical shadowing, dentistry coaching, and a gradual caseload build-up so you gain confidence without feeling overwhelmed. We focus on your pace—whether you're honing soft-tissue surgery, exotic pocket pets (as a bonus interest), or everyday wellness exams. Many practices talk mentorship; we live it daily in our collaborative, no-ego environment.
- State-of-the-Art Tools to Build Your Skills — Jump right in with top equipment: IDEXX Catalyst/ProCyte/SediVue Dx/VetLab UA for fast diagnostics, IM3 Deluxe Dental System, Patterson Versa II Anesthesia, Suburban Surgical Table, SediCal Vet X-Ray + Progeny intra-oral, compound microscope, and more. Our on-site boarding and doggie daycare means diverse cases and a fun, positive vibe.
- Sedona Lifestyle as Your Reset Button — Live where others vacation: hike Cathedral Rock, bike epic trails, explore art galleries, enjoy farm-to-table spots—all after flexible 10-hour shifts (20–40 hours/week, some weekends). Work-life balance isn't a perk here—it's the norm, helping you avoid burnout from day one.
- Real Support for Your Future — Competitive starting pay ($100,000–$250,000 based on experience/hours—generous for new grads), health/dental/vision, 401(k) match, PTO, employee discounts, and ongoing CE/professional development. We're a privately owned practice committed to long-term team members—many start here and build their entire career with us.
Your Day-to-Day (Built for Growth):
- Conduct thorough exams, diagnostics, and preventive care for dogs, cats, and our beloved small companions.
