If you're a veterinary leader with a passion for blending traditional medicine with holistic therapies, this is your opportunity to make a meaningful impact—clinically, culturally, and operationally.

  • Digital radiography & ultrasonography

  • In-house diagnostics & full laboratory

  • Surgery & dentistry

  • Personalized, integrative care plans




Your Role as Medical Director

As our Medical Director, you will play a pivotal role in driving our mission of excellence in integrative veterinary care by:

  • Setting clinical standards and medical protocols

  • Leading and mentoring a passionate team of DVMs and support staff

  • Championing patient care and client satisfaction

  • Partnering with practice leadership to support business growth

  • Overseeing regulatory compliance and safety standards

  • Innovating with new treatments, services, and technologies

  • Cultivating a positive, collaborative, and forward-thinking team culture

  • Encouraging integration of holistic therapies with traditional care




What We Offer

  • Base salary of $150,000 - $200,000 depending on experience

  • Production-based bonuses

  • Sign-on bonus of up to $50k

  • Retention bonus

  • Full benefits package (medical, dental, vision)

  • 401(k) with employer matching

  • Generous CE allowance & professional development support

  • Paid licensing, professional dues, and malpractice coverage

  • Work-life balance: Flexible schedule and a supportive team environment




What We’re Looking For

  • DVM or equivalent from an AVMA-accredited institution

  • Active California veterinary license in good standing

  • Minimum 5 years of clinical experience, including 2+ years in a leadership or senior role

  • Strong surgical, diagnostic, and communication skills

  • Passion for team leadership and mentorship

  • Interest in or experience with integrative/holistic veterinary medicine (acupuncture certification a plus)

  • Proficiency with digital medical records and practice management systems




Why Calabasas?

Work where others vacation. Nestled in the hills above Los Angeles and just minutes from the beaches of Malibu, Calabasas offers scenic hiking, an upscale but laid-back vibe, and easy access to everything Southern California has to offer.
