Associate Veterinarian

About the role

Provide high-quality medical care to patients in a collaborative, team-focused clinical environment. Participate in case management and support team members to ensure efficient clinic operations.

Are you passionate about practicing high-quality medicine in a supportive, team-focused environment; one where you'll actually leave on time and laugh along the way? Mt. Scott Animal Clinic [https://mtscottanimalclinic.com/], located in the heart of Portland, Oregon, is looking to welcome a full-time or part-time veterinarian to our thriving practice! As our third doctor, you'll join a collaborative group that truly values relationships with clients, pets, and one another.

About Us

Mt. Scott Animal Clinic has been proudly serving the Portland community for over 50 years. We're known for delivering exceptional care with compassion, respect, and integrity. Our experienced team of DVMs and support staff are dedicated to providing modern, thoughtful medicine in a culture that emphasizes collaboration, continuous learning, and genuine connection.

We also don't take ourselves too seriously. A good sense of humor isn't just welcome here, it's practically a job requirement! Laughter, teamwork, and looking out for each other are part of our daily routine, and it shows: doctors help each other with cases, technicians and our cross-trained receptionists pitch in wherever needed, and no one is on an island.
