Be ready to provide quality medicine in a collaborative environment where patient-focused medicine and employee growth are priorities.

Veterinarians who are confident with internal medicine, love teaching/mentorship, and have a culture driven mindset will be highly considered for this role.

As our managing veterinarian, you’ll help build out our services and oversee all policies/procedures, ensuring our hospital exceeds expectations and medical standards. This is a Monday-Saturday position with flexible full-time scheduling. We’re happy to accommodate no emergency or on-call hours.

An inside look at LPHC:

We make our patients, clients, and staff feel right at home! Our facility was formerly a private residence and maintains that homey feel with natural light and spacious exam rooms. Our current Medical Director, Dr. Litfin, has been at LPHC since 1987 and has built a team with great longevity that takes a slower, easy pace to medicine. Pet wellness is our main priority, and we primarily perform routine, soft tissue services; however, we are open to expanding and elevating our services, with the help of a new leader!
