Full description
Atlas is excited to be working with a well-established, privately owned veterinary hospital in Chicago that has been under the same ownership for 36 years. The practice has built a distinctive reputation with a client base that values high-quality medicine and is willing to invest in recommended care. For a veterinarian who enjoys taking the time to get cases right, this is an opportunity to work outside the constraints often associated with corporate practice.
The hospital operates from a renovated Victorian building with modern equipment, including digital radiography, ultrasound, an in-house laboratory, and a full surgical setup. Routine procedures include spays, neuters, dental work, and mass removals, while complex surgery and cases requiring overnight monitoring are referred to nearby specialist hospitals. Appointments typically run for 30 to 45 minutes.
The team includes experienced veterinarians, 10 certified veterinary technicians, and skilled veterinary assistants, with doctors supported by two team members. Staff retention is unusually strong, with several veterinarians having worked alongside the owner for 20 to 25 years. The practice is deeply committed to Fear Free care, and the owner is looking for an experienced clinician to help maintain its standards as long-serving doctors gradually reduce their hours.
This role suits a veterinarian who enjoys the clinical and communication side of general practice, is confident in their clinical judgment, and is comfortable seeking a second opinion. The typical schedule is four days per week, with a rotating Saturday approximately once a month. Sundays are closed, there is no routine overnight emergency requirement, and part-time arrangements may be considered.
