King Of Prussia, United States Disability Solutions Full time
Description

Are you looking to make an impact with the region's preferred specialty and emergency team for companion animals? Want to practice urgent care medicine at a specialty level? If you love ER medicine and want to work with a network of incredible veterinary specialists, look no further than the Metropolitan Veterinary Urgent Care and Specialty team in King of Prussia, PA.


As a new 6,000-square-foot facility just a short commute away from Metropolitan Veterinary Associates, this hospital will feature 5 exam rooms, a surgery suite, and ample treatment space. We know wait times in the ER can be frustrating, so the goal is to create a free flow between hospitals to serve our community and their pets to the best of our ability.


In addition to urgent care services, this location will benefit from having a team of specialists onsite including a boarded surgeon, a boarded internist, and a boarded radiologist. You will also have a direct connection to the rest of our specialists at MVA, eliminating the barrier for new consults when you need them most.


We are looking to add to our growing hospital and are in search of a veterinary assistant to join our Surgery Department. The ideal candidate possesses a passion for surgery and anesthesia, excellent interpersonal skills, is extremely organized, and thrives in a fast-paced environment. The schedule for this role would be Tuesday-Friday 7a-5p.
