Cottonwood Veterinary Clinic is an independently owned, AAHA accredited, companion animal practice located in Cheyenne, WY.    We are looking for an associate veterinarian that is willing to work full or part time, hours worked are flexible but some Saturdays will be required.  Currently our doctors work three or four days per week.  We do not take call after-hours so our doctors and staff can enjoy their time away from work.  We partner with a veterinary triage service for after-hours questions and refer our emergencies to a 24-hour emergency hospital in northern Colorado.  

We completed a major renovation in early 2020 with four exam rooms and a spacious lobby.  We are proud to have digital radiography, digital dental radiography, a new ultrasound machine, IDEXX laboratory machines for in house blood work, tonometry, a surgical laser, and a therapeutic laser.

Mentorship is a priority at Cottonwood Veterinary Clinic.  We want to help you succeed and feel comfortable in your practice.   We have a very loyal team and many of the employees have worked together for over 10 years.

Cheyenne is a town of approximately 60,000 people and is home to the Wyoming State Government and Warren Air Force Base.  We are a family friendly town with excellent schools and a safe environment.   Cheyenne has recently opened a small airport with service to Denver that is incredibly convenient.  We are 1.5 hours away from Denver and 30 minutes away from outdoor recreation areas that have great hiking, mountain biking, fishing and cross-country skiing.   We also host the largest outdoor rodeo each summer, Cheyenne Frontier Days.  This 10-day event is a little bit crazy but lots of fun.

Compensation will be based on experience and the number of desired hours to work.  Full time benefits become available if you are working more than 32 hours per week.  Benefits include a health care stipend, vision and dental insurance, $1500 in continuing education benefits plus paid CE days, dues and licensing allowance, SIMPLE IRA program with 3% match, pet discounts, EAP, 6.5 paid holidays and paid vacation and sick leave.

Qualifications include graduation from an AVMA accredited veterinary school, a passing score on the NAVLE and the ability to be licensed in the State of Wyoming.  Applicants must have great communication skills, be highly motivated and willing to work in a team atmosphere.  New graduates are welcome and encouraged.

About Cottonwood Veterinary Clinic LLC

It is our mission to provide the best quality of medicine for cats, dogs and pocket pets. Cottonwood Veterinary Clinic was established as a house call practice in 2013. Our house call service provides personalized care for pets in the comfort of their home, including, annual examinations and vaccinations, medical care, and end of life care. We opened our doors to our new clinic in March 2015. In the clinic, we provide examinations, custom vaccination schedules, surgery, in-house labwork, dental procedures and x-rays, laser surgery, therapeutic laser treatments, digital x-rays and ultrasound. We are proud to have earned certification through the American Animal Hospital Association in April of 2019. With the AAHA Practice of Excellence certification we are in the top 12% of veterinary hospitals within the United States. We have experienced tremendous growth since we first opened our doors, so much so that we decided to expand our building and completed our remodel in February of 2020. Our new setup allows us to keep our lobby open and free of overcrowding and separate dog and cat wards in the back to help relieve any added stress for our patients.
