RISE DVM​/VMD Mentorship Program

The RISE Mentorship Program is a year-long immersive experience designed to support new veterinary graduates as they transition from an academic setting and into the “real world” of clinical practice. RISE Centers pair new graduate veterinarians with experienced mentors to provide hands‑on learning, real‑time case management, and professional development. Participants also join a nationwide cohort of peers, building a supportive network that lasts well beyond the program.

• New veterinary graduates who are eager to practice high-quality medicine and grow their clinical skills in a supportive, real‑world setting.
• Candidates interested in working in General Practice (GP), Emergency (ER), or Mixed Animal Practices, depending on location availability.

• Full‑time employment in a RISE Center with hands‑on mentorship, while slowly transitioning to independently managing a caseload.
• Dual Mentorship Model:
  On‑site support from a “home hospital” mentor and centralized guidance from the national mentorship team.
• Competitive Compensation:
  Salary tailored to the specific hospital and region’s budget.

• New graduate veterinarians can receive up to $50,000 in total signing bonuses, including up to $35,000 through our new grad sign‑on program.
• Full‑time team member benefits.
• Relocation assistance available.
• CE reimbursement allowance and paid PTO days for CE events.

• Nationwide! We have hospitals across the country to meet your geographical preferences.

• We have flexibility for you to start when it works best for you!
