VCA Commack Animal Hospital is seeking a skilled Veterinary Medical Professional to join our team in East Northport, New York.

We are a team-oriented group; our doctors are happy to help one another out on each other's cases. We have digital radiography for whole body as well as dental radiographs. We also offer cold laser therapy. We recently acquired an Ultrasound machine that we enjoy offering as a service to our patients.

We have a 4-week rotating schedule for our doctors, which allows for them to have one to two, 3-4-day weekends. Our doctors really seem to enjoy this schedule. We are currently open 6 days a week (Mon-Fri: 8-6, Sat. 8-4)

We are located in an upper middle-class community, which allows for our clients to approve treatment plans more often than not. Prior to the pandemic, our team enjoyed many fun events together during the year, including kayaking events, bowling, and other fun outings. We have a close-knit team, with many working together for over 10 years.
