Are you a veterinarian seeking a role that offers professional growth, work-life balance, and a great community? Vernon Veterinary Clinic in Vernon, BC, is excited to add a sixth veterinarian to our well-established small animal practice, with mentorship available.


Your days will include appointments, dentistry, and soft tissue surgeries, with the opportunity to explore laser therapy if you're interested.

You’ll be supported by a fantastic team of veterinarians and experienced support staff in a clinic known for its exceptional care and loyal clientele. Saturdays are a half day, shared amongst the team, and with no after-hours or on-call duties, you’ll have plenty of time to enjoy the Okanagan lifestyle. We also close for lunch and leave on time – work life balance aren’t just buzzwords here! Whether it’s skiing at Silver Star resort, mountain biking, or paddleboarding on the lakes, there’s something for everyone in Vernon. Plus, Kelowna International Airport is just 30 minutes away for easy travel.
