Kroner Animal Care is seeking full time veterinary assistants. Our assistants are a vital part of our team working along side of our registered vet techs and our doctors. We currently own two clinics in Athens OH and The Plains OH both of which are rapidly expanding and we would love to have more staff to fuel that expansion even more. Athens is a pretty college town full of friendly clients. It is those clients who are the center of all of our efforts.
Responsibilities and Duties
We love our job getting to interact with all the cute animals that come into our clinic, however it is important for candidates to know this is not a "puppy and kitten" kind of job.

While we do enjoy and love all of our patients, we are here to provide a medical service and do have to deal with some difficult issues at times. The ideal candidate will be compassionate and understanding as well as mature enough to help clients deal with difficult situations.

IDEXX in house blood machines, Urinalysis machine, Digital Xray/Dental Xray, Ultrasound, Surgical and Therapy lasers
