Veterinarian

Mendocino County, Northern California. East Hill Veterinary Clinic is seeking an associate veterinarian.

Associate salary is $130,000 plus $6000 stipend for medical and dental, 4% matched 401-k, CE allowance tailored to meet your needs, veterinary discount for your pets, (our cost + 10%) and one month PTO, no non-compete or anything similar to a non-compete. Buy-in is absolutely on the table. Mentoring is gentle and collaborative. We have never paid via ProSal before but if applicant/candidate desires this, we can do so.

We are the private owners of a long-established busy small animal practice in a beautiful 4800 square foot building in the heart of Mendocino County, Northern California. We are dedicated to our wonderful staff and clientele, we practice high quality medicine and surgery in a beautiful, comfortable setting with a fantastic, skilled, professional and highly irreverent staff, many of whom have been with us for a decade and a half.

We are a 2 DVM practice. DVMs currently work a four-day week with 30-minute appointments and we closed on the weekends and holidays with no emergency or on-call.

In addition to taking care of our clientele and their pets, East Hill Veterinary Clinic provides medical, surgical and dental services for cats and dogs for our local no-kill shelter, Humane Society for Inland Mendocino County. We dedicate one surgery day per week for private patients and a second surgery day for shelter patients, so we are able to enjoy the best of worlds: general practice and shelter medicine.

We have all the usual bells and whistles: digital radiology, digital dental radiology, endoscopes (rigid, flexible; we can get into any orifice!), all the monitoring equipment (Dopplers, pulse oximeters, ECG, etc. We have a full diagnostic lab with digital cytology, diagnostic ultrasound with live assistance, TonoVet, a full-service grooming salon.

We have a practice manager, two RVTs, three veterinary assistants, four receptionists, a groomer, and one person dedicated entirely to cleaning. Most of the staff are cross trained to cover each other to allow lunches and time off. We use Cornerstone and are paper-light.

We have a zero-tolerance policy for bad client behavior: if clients are rude to our staff, we fire them. No drama, just filtered clientele who treat us with respect.

Our rural small town is bustling with artists and ranch folks, a delightful mix of wineries, redwoods, hundreds of miles of hiking trails, the world-famous Skunk Train, lots of small-town charm, and we are just an hour away from the most breathtaking coast in the west, three hours north of the Bay Area and an hour from Santa Rosa which has all the things like Trader Joes. Ukiah, 20 minutes to the south has all features of a larger city, a variety of eateries and boutique shopping.
