Southern Colorado Veterinary Internal Medicine (SCVIM) has been proudly serving the Colorado Springs community and the Southern Colorado for over 25 years. Known for our strong reputation, collaborative culture, and award-winning team, we provide advanced care in internal medicine and oncology alongside trusted partners in surgery, dermatology, and emergency care on our shared real estate. With a supportive staff, a full ICU, and specialists who are leaders in their fields, SCVIM is dedicated to excellence—for our patients, clients, and team alike.
We are seeking a Support Veterinarian (Non-Specialist) to join our Internal Medicine and Oncology service. This unique role is designed to provide care for established patients, support our board-certified specialists, and help bridge access for referral cases.
About the Role
- Collaborate closely with 6 Internists, 1 Oncologist, and 1 Support Veterinarian in a referral-only setting.
- Provide initial consultations, diagnostics, and monitoring for cases referred by primary care veterinarians.
- Manage stable and ill oncology and internal medicine cases, including rechecks and cases needing timely evaluation when a specialist is unavailable.
- Support continuity of care for clients and patients while helping guide cases to the appropriate specialty service.
- Role is more oncology-focused due to caseload, but includes internal medicine cases.
What This Role Is Not
- Not an emergency or urgent care role—appointments are referral-only and typically scheduled 1–3 days in advance.
- Not a general practice position.
- No surgical cutting; limited to fast-scan ultrasound, diagnostic authorizations, and inpatient care under specialist direction.
Compensation & Benefits
- Production-based compensation model with take-home potential of $140,000–$250,000 annually.
- Comprehensive benefits package including medical, dental, and vision coverage.
- 401(k) with employer contributions.
- Paid time off, continuing education allowance, and professional dues coverage.
- Supportive workplace programs, wellness initiatives, and opportunities for flexible/remote work for some staff.
Why SCVIM?
- 25 years of service and strong community reputation.
- Longstanding leadership—our original founder and many senior team members remain active, including staff with 20+ year tenures.
- Recognized with the 2023 Ethos Elite Award and 2025 Ethos Presidential Award.
- Supportive, stable workplace culture with robust staff support programs; we stay fully staffed and often have a waitlist to join our team.
- Opportunities to collaborate across other specialties and learn alongside respected leaders in the field.
- Ideal for veterinarians considering a specialty residency in the future—this role can be a successful stepping stone.
Position Details
- Full-time position, second Support Veterinarian in this role.
- Expected Schedule: Tuesday–Friday, 8:00 a.m.–6:00 p.m.
- Primarily oncology-focused with internal medicine cases as needed.
- Significant independent judgment within a collaborative structure.
- Commitment through at least July (with potential for longer).
If you are a dedicated veterinarian looking to practice advanced medicine in a collaborative, specialty-driven environment—without the demands of ER or GP—this role offers a unique and rewarding opportunity.
