Job Description:

Associate Veterinarian



Are you looking for a stress-free, weekend-free, innovative place to practice quality medicine in a warm, beautiful, pet and family-friendly beach community?

Clements Ferry Veterinary is an independent, privately owned, cutting-edge, rapidly growing, companion animal practice located in one of the fastest growing areas of Charleston, SC, and the fastest growing area in the state. We focus on a family-oriented culture and a positive work-life balance, which is why we offer a 4-day work week with no weekends or on-call. We focus on preventive wellness care and value quality service over quantity and quotas.



We opened in May 2018 and have rapidly grown to a 2-3 doctor practice. We have planned and have room to expand to an 8,000 square foot facility. Being so new allows us to grow with the industry and implement the newest and most up-to-date modalities and services as we expand. We encourage areas of special interest and look to add new services as we grow. We currently offer Digital DR radiography, digital dental radiography, ultrasound, DoctorVet cold laser, and cryotherapy in a Fear Free facility.



Compensation is flexible and based on experience and production, with upside earning potential.



Benefits package includes a signing bonus, health insurance reimbursement, dental and vision insurance, 401k match, PTO, paid licenses, and CE. Our goals and expectations are for all full-time associates to earn over $125k per year.



Are you ready to grow with us and add a personalized touch to our expansion? We look forward to meeting and partnering with you to help you achieve your goals, both professionally and personally.

Responsibilities:
--- Foster a positive rapport with clientele through humble servitude and commitment to clear communication, client education, and an emphasis on high-quality, preventative medicine.
--- Surgery is scheduled 1-2 times a week, and we do expect our veterinarians to perform routine OVH and castrations, mass removals, cystotomies, foreign body exploratory, as well as DAT with extractions. We work with Mobile Veterinary Surgery for our orthopedic cases.
--- We offer extended appointment times because our veterinarians perform high-touch, head-to-tail examinations with additional time to address client questions and concerns. We promise financial transparency, so our technicians will update the treatment plan and review it with the client to reflect our doctors' recommendations.
--- Outside of the exam room, our doctors follow through with client updates on labwork and pending diagnostics. They work in tandem with our technicians to gather follow-up information, as well as prepare discharge instructions to send home after each visit.
--- Maintain accurate charting through our cloud-based software, ezyVet.

Qualifications:
--- Valid SC state DVM license
--- Federal accreditation to endorse pet health travel certificates through APHIS
--- Valid DEA license to dispense controlled substances
--- 2+ years practicing veterinary medicine
