Do you have a passion for helping pets in need? Are you looking for a position that is personally fulfilling? Make a difference for community pets with Southern Pines Healthy Pet Clinic.
We have openings for two full-time and/or part-time Veterinarians at our clinic location in Hattiesburg, MS. We are excited to offer flexibility, a positive work/life balance, a variety of work responsibilities, and a chance to flourish!
We have an opening in our Spay Neuter Program, a low-cost HQHVSN program for public animals where over 90,000 spays and neuters for cats and dogs have already been performed. We have both part-time and full-time openings in this department. This position is Monday through Friday with no weekend requirements.
We also have an opening in our Wellness program. We currently provide low cost wellness services to the Pine Belt area 6 days a week. This program offers a flexible work week. If you are interested in a full-time position we offer a 3,4 or 5 day work week. We are hoping to add a Lead Veterinarian to help grow, develop, and manage this program.
We consider our focus to be on veterinarian-driven medicine, and as such look forward to sharing knowledge and expertise with support staff and clients.
Additional Details:
Our Southern Pines Healthy Pet Clinic has become a role model in the field of animal welfare.
