The Carrollton Animal Hospital and Carrollton Equine are seeking a mixed animal veterinarian to join our busy practices in Carrollton, Ohio.  We treat dogs and cats with no after-hours emergency work at the Carrollton Animal Hospital.  We treat horses with evenly distributed emergency hours at our equine only sister practice, Carrollton Equine.  Both clinics are fully equipped offering in-house diagnostics including CBC, Chemistry, Urinalysis, Digital Radiographs (including dental), Ultrasound, Laser, Shockwave, PRP, and Gastroscopy.  Our support staff to doctor ration is kept at a 2-4 technicians/assistants per doctor, which allows our doctors to focus on patient care and client communication without being pressed for time.

About us:

Located in picturesque Carrollton, Ohio and surrounded by beautiful lakes, farms, wineries, scenic drives, and hikes, the Carrollton Animal Hospital has been serving our community for over 50 years.  The area offers small-town charm with many nearby amenities, great schools, and neighborly clients.  Our practice is family-friendly and privately-owned, allowing for veterinarian-based decisions in the day-to-day operations of the clinic and for very individualized medicine and patient care.  No two patients and clients are the same; this is why our approach is always tailored to meet their individual needs.

Our exclusively equine sister practice, Carrollton Equine opened in 2022 and serves Carroll County with both ambulatory practice and a haul-in facility focused on sports medicine/lameness and breeding.  We pride ourselves on providing high-quality medicine in a rural setting with our doctors collaborating frequently with each other to provide the best possible care.

Both clinics boast skill in western and eastern medicine giving our facilities an edge when it comes to finding the root cause of a problem.  This approach also allows us more treatment options often leading to better outcomes with complex cases.  

New graduates are welcome!  All our clinicians greatly enjoy mentoring which will help a new graduate to develop the skill set and confidence level needed to successfully practice veterinary medicine.  Doctors split their time in both clinics, making a typical work load approximately 90% small animal with 10% equine work.  The equine work has been steadily growing since Carrollton Equine opened in 2022.  

This position comes with a competitive salary and benefits (see below).  We also have a large support staff to assist our doctors in managing their patient’s care.  Our hours are 7am to 5pm Monday, Wednesday, Friday and 7am-7pm on Tuesday and Thursday.  Weekend/emergency hours are only on the Equine side of the practice with all small animal emergencies going to nearby emergency clinics.

Job Responsibilities include:

Diagnosis and treatment of sick and/or injured animals

Performing and assisting with surgeries

Managing wellness plans, including vaccination schedules and parasiticide compliance

Educating clients on their pet’s treatment plans, including the importance of preventative care
