Job Description

Managing Veterinarian

Perry Hall Animal Hospital – Perry Hall, MD


Perry Hall Animal Hospital in Perry Hall, MD is excited to welcome a Managing Veterinarian to our team as we grow to a 4-doctor practice. We’re a close-knit, supportive group that truly enjoys working together. Our goal is simple: provide excellent medical care, create a great experience for our clients, and make sure our team has the balance and support they need to love coming to work.


This role is perfect for a veterinarian who enjoys practicing quality medicine and also likes helping guide, mentor, and support a team, without giving up work-life balance or getting buried in bureaucracy.


About Our Hospital

We’re an appointment-only small animal practice. Sick and wellness appointments are 30 minutes and consult or second-opinion appointments are 60 minutes. We do offer urgent or same-day appointments on a limited, case-by-case basis, and you get to decide what works for your day. There’s no overnight care, no on-call shifts, and no after-hours emergencies. Critical cases are referred to a nearby emergency clinic so you can go home on time.


We believe work should be enjoyable. We do potlucks, crafting activities, and off-site social events, and we genuinely like spending time together. Your day-to-day will include appointments and surgery or dental procedures, along with some leadership and mentoring time. We’re happy to build a schedule that fits your preferences and supports a healthy balance.


Our Team

You’ll be supported by an incredible team of technicians, including three very experienced RVTs. Most of our techs/assistants have been with us for over nine years, and they’re skilled, dependable, and truly part of the heart of the hospital.


As Managing Veterinarian, you’ll help guide medical standards, mentor associate veterinarians, and be a go-to support for the team, while still spending the majority of your time doing what you love: practicing medicine.
