About CVETS:
Founded by husband-and-wife team, Drs. Michael and Tracy Schlicksup, CVETS is a well‑respected, family‑owned veterinary hospital in Columbia, South Carolina. We are excited to have expanded our services with a standalone Urgent Care clinic located at 2989 Sunset Blvd. W. Columbia, SC 29169. While our main hospital provides 24/7 emergency and specialty care, this clinic focuses on providing timely and efficient care for patients with urgent, but non‑life‑safeguarding conditions.
At CVETS, we are committed to providing exceptional care through our dedicated team and well‑equipped facilities. We foster a respectful, ethical, and collaborative work environment where every team member is valued.

CVETS is seeking a skilled and compassionate full‑time, on‑site Urgent Care Veterinarian to join the team at our new standalone Urgent Care clinic on Sunset Blvd in West Columbia, SC. This is an exciting opportunity to shape the growth of our urgent care services within a supportive and progressive environment, while still being connected to the resources of our main specialty hospital.
The Urgent Care Veterinarian will be responsible for triaging, diagnosing, and treating a variety of urgent care cases, determining when transfer to the main emergency hospital is necessary, and maintaining strong communication with clients and our referring veterinarians. This role requires a highly motivated individual with excellent clinical and communication skills, and a passion for providing timely and effective care.
Compensation:
Advance your career in a supportive and financially rewarding environment. We offer a highly competitive salary commensurate with experience along with a significant continuing education allowance, generous paid time off, robust health insurance, and a company‑matched retirement plan to support your professional growth.
$40K sign‑on bonus – $20K at signing, $20K at 6 months.
We pride ourselves on a “well‑oiled machine” approach. You’ll work shoulder‑to‑shoulder with our founders, husband‑and‑wife team, Dr. Mike Schlicksup (DACVS) and Dr. Tracy Schlicksup (DABVP), ensuring you are constantly seen, heard, and valued. Dr. Mike works as one of our surgeons, and Dr. Tracy runs the CVETS ER. We prioritize your success from day one, providing comprehensive onboarding and a team that genuinely supports one another.
