Provide urgent care services during weekend shifts and primary care during weekdays. Manage a variety of medical and surgical cases for pets in a family-oriented practice.
Description Eastern Shore Animal Hospital is seeking a full-time or part-time urgent care veterinarian to join our dedicated staff in North Carolina’s beautiful Outer Banks.
In June 2023, we expanded our services to include urgent care, with this service operating Saturday and Sunday from 8 am to 8 pm.
These are single-doctor shifts, seeing a variety of medical and surgical cases.
We are not providing overnight care at this time, so more critical patients are referred to 24-hour facilities.
We are searching for a veterinarian interested in working some of these weekend hours, as well as some weekday primary care shifts, depending on your interest in part-time or full-time.
Relief veterinarians are also encouraged to contact us!
