Discover the warmth and camaraderie of our close-knit, non-corporate practice, where personalized patient care takes center stage. Here, you'll have the autonomy to practice medicine the way you've always envisioned, free from the constraints of pre-made protocols or negative accrual bonus structures. Join us in providing top-notch veterinary care with a personal touch, fostering lasting connections with pets and their families in a supportive, community-focused environment.

Currently, we operate three hospitals. Our flagship facility, Village Oak Veterinary Hospital, established in 2001, boasts a spacious 9000 sq.ft. free-standing hospital located in Modesto. We are proud to have a team of 4 full-time general practitioners and a support staff of 20, including several R.V.T.s who provide invaluable assistance to our doctors. Village Oak also collaborates with specialist veterinarians, including Dr. Bradbury (internal medicine), Dr. David Detweiler (radiology), Dr. Brian Mackie (cardiology), and our board-certified surgeon, Dr. J.T. Vida. 

Northgate Veterinary Hospital, built in 2004 in nearby Manteca, is a steadily growing practice. This 6,500 sq ft facility supports 3 full-time general practitioners and is surrounded by thriving new single-family housing developments.
Our third location, Manteca Veterinary Hospital, has a rich history, originally starting as a large animal practice in the 1950s before transitioning to mixed animal care in the 1970s. We acquired Manteca Veterinary Hospital in 1993, converting it exclusively to small animal care. Due to its remarkable growth, we recently replaced the old facility with a brand new hospital.

Our hospitals are equipped with state-of-the-art technology, including digital X-ray, digital dental X-ray, surgical laser, ultrasound, tonopens, and advanced in-house laboratory equipment. Additionally, we offer boarding and grooming services for the convenience of our clients.

In light of our practices' success and the expanding surrounding community, we are in search of two additional exceptional veterinarians to join our team. Our modern hospitals, motivated staff, and loyal clients are the perfect backdrop for a great general practitioner. We offer a competitive starting salary (open to negotiation), $20,000.00 for moving expenses, a health insurance allowance, an employer-funded profit-sharing plan, a C.E. allowance, association memberships, no emergency call duties, paid vacations and personal days, and more.

If your career goals include practicing progressive medicine while enjoying a welcoming and fulfilling atmosphere, we invite you to reach out to us. We are eager to discuss any questions you may have, provide additional information, and arrange a tour of our hospitals. For serious inquiries, we will cover travel expenses.
