A Personal Note from the Owner
Dear Colleague,
Thank you for taking a few minutes to learn about Neighborhood Veterinary Care.
If you're reading this, you're probably looking for more than just another veterinary position. Maybe you're searching for a practice where medicine still comes first, where relationships matter, and where you can enjoy coming to work every day.
When I opened Neighborhood Veterinary Care in 2020, my vision wasn't simply to build another veterinary hospital. I wanted to create the kind of practice I would be proud to spend my own career in, a place where clients feel like neighbors, pets are treated like family, and every member of the team is respected, supported, and encouraged to grow.
Today, I'm incredibly proud of the culture we've built.
We've assembled a compassionate, talented team that genuinely enjoys working together. Our clients trust us because we've built lasting relationships with them, and our team supports one another because we believe exceptional veterinary medicine is never accomplished alone.
As we've continued to grow, I've realized it's time to bring in another leader, not simply another veterinarian.
I'm looking for someone who wants to help shape the future of this practice. Someone who enjoys mentoring others, values collaboration, and believes leadership is about helping people become the best version of themselves.
If that sounds like you, I would genuinely enjoy the opportunity to meet you.
Dr. Lynette Sakellariou
