You don't need to worry about the tools—we have that covered.

We are looking for a surgeon ready to step into a fully equipped, high-volume environment.

We are proudly veterinarian-Founded & owned.

We are run by veterinarians.

Located in the beautiful Hudson Valley, our practice offers the perfect balance of professional satisfaction and personal lifestyle. ● Ideally Located: We are a short, scenic drive to NYC.

You can enjoy the city culture on your days off, but live in an area with a lower cost of living, more land, and less traffic. ● The Good Life: The Hudson Valley is the food and drink capital of New York State.
