Hello!
We find ourselves in the uncommon position of looking for a new associate to join our 4+ doctor practice.
Yes, we are still fiercely independent; none of the baggage that comes with corporate ownership.  So we try hard to make this a great place to work for all members of the team.   No one place is perfect, of course, but we know how much time you spend at work - it needs to be the best environment it can be.

There are plenty of "toys" and things to help you be the best doctor you can be.  And if we don't have it, we can talk about getting it.   Recent grads or less experienced doctors are welcome to apply and we can provide as much or as little mentorship as you need.

We are open Monday to Friday regular day hours and 1/2 day on Saturday.   No after-hours emergencies or on-call.   Time away from work is as important to us as the time you spend here!

A majority of our patients are dogs and cats, but we have a fairly big caseload of exotic animal pets as well.   Mostly small mammals, but also lots of avian patients as well as reptiles.   We will foster and grow your skills with these interesting animals as much as you want.  Or not at all if you prefer.

The usual things - DVM license, ability to practice in New Mexico.
Ability to handle/lift different sizes of patients and to do basic surgery and dental care.

Interest or ability to work on exotic species is a big plus, but not required.
