What are the responsibilities and job description for the Veterinarian position at Heartland Veterinary Partners?
Practice
Our veterinary clinic has been serving the pet community of Racine and the surrounding areas for over 50 years. We pride ourselves on being your friendly neighborhood vet, where a warm welcome is always there to greet clients.
As a clinic that focuses solely on canine and feline patients, Beechwood Veterinary Clinic offers more than cures and fixes for pet’s maladies — we provide long-term solutions.
Position Purpose
We are on the lookout for an experienced veterinarian to bring their knowledge and passion to our pet-loving community. Our bustling practice is led by our wonderful managing DVM, who has built a strong support team to provide top-notch care to our multi-generational clientele.
We are a team that works hard and plays hard, with the same goal of completing our responsibilities and daily tasks in a timely manner. Additionally, we are encouraged to “unplug” after each shift and take time for ourselves and our families.
Full and part-time positions available.
About the area: Also known as Belle City, Racine truly embodies the beauty of the Midwest. It may have a small-town feel, but it is bustling with activity. Being located along the shores of Lake Michigan AND having Root River winding through the city, fishing, hiking, and kayaking are easy to find for the outdoor enthusiast. Racine is also known for its large festivals (Independence Day), eclectic cuisine (You must try the Kringle!), and art galleries (the largest contemporary collection in America).
