Southview Animal Hospital is seeking an experienced Managing Veterinarian to lead our Urgent Care service at one of Minnesota’s largest and most medically progressive small animal hospitals.
This is an exciting opportunity for a veterinarian who enjoys fast-paced medicine and wants to take the next step into leadership without stepping away from clinical practice. You’ll help guide medical standards, mentor fellow veterinarians, support team development, and shape the continued growth of urgent care medicine—all while maintaining clinical autonomy and access to the resources of a large, collaborative hospital.
What This Role Offers
Urgent care at Southview offers the best of both worlds: the pace and variety of same-day medicine with the support of experienced colleagues, advanced diagnostics, skilled technicians, 24-hour hospitalization support, and visiting specialists when cases require additional collaboration.
This role offers:
- Greater autonomy and clinical independence within a collaborative hospital setting
- Opportunity to support associate development, encourage clinical growth, and foster a collaborative medical team
- A flexible urgent care model with scheduled arrival times and emergent walk-in availability--and help further improve workflows and identify opportunities to enhance patient and client experiences
- A diverse and engaging caseload
- Advanced onsite diagnostics, including ultrasound, CT, and endoscopic procedures
- Visiting specialist support, including cardiology, soft tissue surgery, and orthopedic surgery, remote specialist support available for radiology and more.
- Collaboration with an experienced team of doctors, technicians, and support staff
- The ability to remain hands-on in-patient care as cases move forward
- Support from a hospital structure designed for more complex patient management
Southview’s urgent care model allows doctors to manage a wide range of cases while having access to the people, tools, and resources needed to provide thoughtful and efficient care. It is a great fit for a veterinarian who enjoys medical variety, problem-solving, client communication, and the ability to help patients when timely access matters most.
We are seeking an experienced veterinarian who is comfortable navigating urgent care cases with a higher level of independence while collaborating closely within a larger hospital team.
Compensation & Benefits
- Base salary: $130,000–$160,000 plus production, commensurate with experience
- Medical, dental, and vision insurance
- 401(k) with match
- Generous CE allowance
- Uniform allowance
- Access to mentorship and professional development resources, including PetOne Veterinary
- Additional benefits and support through NVA
This is an ideal opportunity for a veterinarian seeking the pace of urgent care and the chance to help shape the continued growth of urgent care medicine at Southview.
