Veterinarian

What if your clinic felt like home — and your work made a real impact, every single day?

At West Valley Veterinary Clinic, we believe in serving with heart. Located in the Western area of Salt Lake City, our mission is simple: provide high-quality, compassionate care to the West Valley community. If you’re looking for a role where your work matters and your presence makes a difference, you’ll find it here.

We've recently expanded our urgent care and same-day appointment services, led by a doctor with strong ER experience. That means you’ll have the chance to tackle a wide variety of cases and help pets when they need us most — all without the intensity or burnout of a full ER environment.

Our location offers the best of both worlds: deeply rooted community care, with immediate access to I-15 and the 215 belt loop, so you can easily get to downtown Salt Lake, the mountains, or wherever you’re headed next.

Inside the clinic, you’ll find 6 spacious exam rooms, a dedicated dental suite with digital x-ray, a fully equipped surgical suite, an in-house lab, ultrasound, and everything you need to practice great medicine. More importantly, you’ll find a tight-knit, upbeat team that works hard, supports each other, and genuinely enjoys coming to work.

Our doctors enjoy a 3.5-day workweek, so there’s plenty of time to explore Utah’s outdoors, hit the slopes, or just recharge.

You’ll also have access to leadership training, CE support, and professional development through our partnership with NVA — all with the freedom and autonomy to shape your day and your career.
