What if you didn't have to choose between a caseload that keeps you sharp and a schedule that gives you your life back?

Yorkville Animal Hospital sits along the Fox River about an hour from Chicago, and it's the kind of place where both are genuinely possible. As a high-volume small animal practice with 6 full-time DVMs, scheduled appointments, and walk-in visits, no two days look alike.

The Opportunity:
  • A busy, varied caseload with the support staff and thoughtful scheduling to back it up, including at least two full weekends off every month
  • Full medical autonomy and a consistently strong surgical schedule
  • Ability to provide mentorship and support to students attending externships
  • At least 3-5 years of experience as a DVM in a small animal GP or urgent care setting is required for this role
The Resources:
  • Large and modern facility with full in-house diagnostics, including dental and digital x-rays, ultrasound, and lab
  • Surgical and therapeutic laser
  • 1:1.5 doctor-to-tech ratio
  • Active externship site for multiple veterinary programs, with a pathway to join our mentorship team
The Lifestyle:
  • Enjoy easy access to kayaking, fishing, biking, and hiking along the Fox River, Saw Wee Kee, and Hoover Forest Preserve
Pro Sal Compensation & Benefits:
  • Starting salary of $135,000–$160,000 plus production bonuses
  • Up to $20,000 sign-on bonus
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Access to CE courses (dentistry, ultrasound, surgery, and more) at NVA's nearby Pet One Training Center in Addison, IL
  • Professional liability coverage, DEA and state licensing, and VIN membership
  • PTO, paid CE, and CE/licensing reimbursement
  • Comprehensive health insurance coverage plans
  • Generous staff pet discounts
  • Final compensation commensurate with experience, skills, schedule, and scope of services provided

If you have ever pictured a life with more room to breathe, a shorter list of stressors, and a community that feels like home, this is your sign.
