Build Something From the Ground Up

Blue Pearl Pet Hospital is expanding to Austin, Texas, and we are seeking a Veterinary Internal Medicine specialist to help launch and grow a brand-new specialty and emergency hospital.

This is a unique opportunity to play a key role in shaping a new hospital, building your service, and influencing how medicine is practiced in a collaborative, multi-disciplinary environment.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Opportunity to build and grow an Internal Medicine service in a new facility
• Collaborative, multi-disciplinary team from the outset
• Strong focus on work-life balance and sustainable caseloads
• Access to advanced diagnostics and modern equipment
• Opportunities for leadership, mentorship, and professional growth

• Dedicated Internal Medicine procedure room
• Endoscopy capabilities
• Dedicated emergency service
• Fully equipped ICU with Snyder oxygen cages and separate respiratory, GI, and isolation areas

Planned specialties include Emergency, Internal Medicine, Critical Care, and Surgery. You will be supported by experienced nursing teams, referral coordinators, and operational leaders who are committed to elevating your practice and ensuring a seamless experience for both clinicians and clients.

Life in Austin

• Austin offers a dynamic mix of culture, outdoor activity, and livability:
• A nationally recognized live music and arts scene
• Extensive hiking and biking trails throughout the city
• Easy access to water activities including kayaking, paddle boarding, and boating on Lady Bird Lake and Lake Travis
• A diverse and highly regarded food scene ranging from Tex-Mex and barbecue to innovative local concepts
• Warm weather and abundant sunshine that support an active, outdoor lifestyle

Compensation & Perks

• Sign-on bonus + relocation assistance
• 401(k) with match
• Comprehensive health, dental, vision, and life insurance
• Parental leave + fertility support

Professional Growth

• Annual CE stipend + FREE access to Vet Girl, Vet Folio, and more
• Blue Pearl University + 2,000+ journal access
• Opportunities to participate in clinical research
• RECOVER CPR certification (covered)

Wellbeing Support

• Mental health support (12 free sessions via LYRA)
• Employee Assistance Program
• Work-life balance in a supportive, team-first culture
