We are eager to add an associate to our small animal practice here in the beautiful mountains of Gunnison Colorado! We will consider any level of experience including a new grad, depending on references, for either a part-time or full-time position at our busy, rural, small animal hospital. We focus on practicing modern, high-quality medicine and surgery. We see a small number of exotic and small ruminant patients. We are willing to set up for mobile large animal practice for the right candidate. We are equipped with in-house Idex blood machines, digital radiology, digital dental radiology, ultrasound, state of the art surgical suite with anesthetic monitoring. We work closely with several referral hospitals for consultations and complex cases. We have a wonderful clientele and our support staff is dedicated, professional, and hard-working.

Gunnison is located in a great mountain location, 25 miles from Crested Butte Ski Resort: spend your weekends hiking, skiing, mountain biking, camping, fishing, rafting, and kayaking close to home.

A candidate who practices high-quality, progressive medicine, has an interest in surgery (both soft tissue and orthopedics), and has a strong focus on client education and communication will command our attention.
