Small Animal Veterinarian

 Reading through the employment adds, they all start to look the same.  You get a little history, some real estate information and then an equipment list.  The most important part of a veterinary hospital is the people!  We get that!  We have employees that have been with us for decades, I think that says something about our team!

That said; let me bore you with some history, real estate information and an equipment list:

Currently, we have 3 hospitals. Our main facility, Village Oak Veterinary Hospital, is located in Modesto;   was built in 2001 and is a 9000 sq.ft. free standing hospital.  We have 4 full time general practitioners, and a support staff of 20, with several R.V.T.s to assist the doctors.  Village Oak also has the benefit of specialists that work with the general practitioners and see referral cases at our hospital.  Currently we have Dr. Diana Simoes  our dermatologist, Dr. David Detweiler our radiologist, Dr. Brian Mackie our cardiologist, and our boarded surgeon Dr. J.T. Vida..  We have digital X-ray and digital dental X-ray, surgical laser, ultrasound, arthroscopy, tonopens, and new in house laboratory equipment.  For the convenience of our clients we also offer boarding and grooming.

Northgate Veterinary Hospital is the newest of our hospitals built in nearby Manteca.  This hospital was built in 2004 and is our most rapidly growing practice.  This 6,500 sq ft practice supports 3 full time general practitioners as well as Dr. Marilyn Koski, with certification in acupuncture and physical therapy.

Our third location, Manteca Veterinary Hospital is one of the oldest practices in the state.  Started in the 50’s as a large animal practice and transitioning to mixed in the 70’s.  We purchased Manteca Veterinary Hospital in 1993 and made it strictly small animal.  Due to the growth of this practice, we have replaced the old facility with a brand new hospital, and it has taken off.

Due to the success of our practices and growth of the surrounding area we are looking for two additional doctors.  We have great, modern hospitals; motivated staff, and great clients….. What we need is a great general practitioner!!!!  We offer a competitive starting salary (negotiable, everything is negotiable), $5000.00 for moving expenses, health insurance allowance, employer funded profit sharing plan, C.E. allowance, association memberships, no emergency calls and much more.

 If your goals include practicing progressive medicine and working in an enjoyable atmosphere, then give us a call.  We welcome the chance to talk to you, answer any questions, and arrange a tour of the hospitals.  We will cover travel expenses for serious inquiries.  Correspondence may be sent to Village Oak Veterinary Hospital, 3924 Oakdale Rd., Modesto, CA 95357.  or call Sean Fitzpatrick, D.V.M at 209-551-6200
