Equine Sports Medicine & Rehabilitation Associate Veterinarian

Position: Equine Sports Medicine & Rehabilitation Veterinarian

Location: Berthoud, Colorado (with travel to Steamboat Springs & Laramie, WY)

Are you passionate about equine sports medicine and rehabilitation? Looking for a supportive, innovative team that values your growth, work-life balance, and long-term satisfaction?

Welcome to Front Range Equine Performance. We’re redefining what it means to practice equine medicine—by thinking outside the box, creating flexible schedules, and fostering a sustainable, positive environment where veterinarians can thrive.

Minimal On-Call Shared only between four veterinarians for rehabilitation patients. Our on-site rehab team handles triage. No routine/ambulatory emergency coverage required.

A Focus on Sustainability We’re committed to creating a sustainable model for equine veterinary practice—one that prioritizes work-life balance, long-term career satisfaction, and the health of our team. By limiting emergency duties, encouraging professional development, and embracing flexible scheduling, we’re building a future where you can love equine medicine for the long haul.

We’re seeking a motivated, team-oriented veterinarian with a strong interest in equine sports medicine, lameness, and rehabilitation. You’ll be part of a collaborative team dedicated to achieving outstanding outcomes through a mix of traditional and integrative therapies.

Because a large portion of our caseload includes complementary therapies (chiropractic, acupuncture), you must be certified or willing to become certified in these areas within the first 2 years of joining the practice.

Caseload Approximately 70% sports medicine/lameness and 30% complementary therapies. We’re looking for veterinarians who embrace both traditional diagnostics and integrative care.

Training & Support Chiropractic, acupuncture, and rehabilitation certifications will be required over time. Not certified yet? We’ll pay for your training and provide mentorship to build your confidence and skillset. ( 3-year repayment clause applies if you leave within 3 years of certification. )

Professional Development Education is part of our culture. Whether you’re certified or just getting started, you’ll be supported. Got a special interest—like saddle fit or regenerative therapies? We’ll help you grow that niche and become a go-to expert in the region.

Teaching & Mentorship We love teaching. Veterinary and pre-vet students regularly join us for ride-alongs and hands‑on learning. If mentoring future professionals excites you, you'll feel right at home.

• Completed a 1-year general practice internship plus 1-year fellowship or associate position with strong lameness and imaging experience
• Certified (or willing to become certified) in chiropractic, acupuncture, and rehabilitation
• Excellent communicator and team player
