The schedule follows the seasonal rhythm of the Hamptons, with a busier late spring through early fall and a steadier off season.
As the practice approaches its 100-year anniversary, we are seeking an experienced veterinarian with at least 2 years of clinical experience who enjoys both medical and surgical care, with confidence in spay, neuter, dentistry, and soft tissue surgery. As we continue to build out our team, including hiring a Medical Director, this is an opportunity to be part of a hospital that is actively growing and evolving. We are looking for someone who wants to contribute ideas, help shape workflows and team culture, and play a meaningful role in the next phase of the practice. This is a strong fit for a veterinarian who values collaboration, wants a voice in how a hospital operates, and is excited to help build and grow within a well-established, community-trusted practice.
We are dedicated to establishing a culture that celebrates all forms of diversity and allows us to be an inclusive service provider in this community.
