Hey Veterinarians, please bring your eyes over here and take a few minutes to read about an excellent opportunity for two Veterinarian positions at our animal clinic. Before presenting my spiel to you, I would like you to consider these questions. Are you at the crossroads or the beginning of your Veterinary career? Are you ready for a new adventure? Are you looking for a place to shine and feel appreciated? Are you dreaming of a position where you can work with animals, have fun, be a part of a family atmosphere, and have more than adequate compensation? Then this is your opportunity day!

We have been rescuing, healing, and re-homing animals for over a century. The Sylvan Animal Clinic, although part of a non-profit organization, functions as a private practice. It must be because it supports our animal shelter. Now, don't get the wrong idea as you might be thinking of a non-profit organization; what about compensation? My answer to that question is that our salaries and benefits package is very competitive with area clinics, whether corporate or private clinics. I will get to that a little later.
