Our new, fully staffed facility offers the perfect place to practice state-of-the-art veterinary medicine in a supportive and FUN environment! We are a mixed animal practice with a strong focus on small animal care. While the position is primarily small animal, we welcome anyone with mixed animal experience. Regular practice hours are Monday through Friday, 8 AM to 5 PM and our veterinarians enjoy a 4-day workweek, leaving ample time to explore our beautiful area! After-hours emergencies are minimized with a dedicated triage line, and on-call responsibilities are thoughtfully rotated among our team and other local clinics.
We are well equipped with ultrasound, digital radiology, dental radiography, endoscopy, K-laser, IDEXX in-house lab, shockwave, acupuncture, platelet-rich plasma injections, farm truck with vet box, portable x-ray unit, and PowerFloat equipment for equine dentals. Having worked together multiple years, the staff is a very close knit team, highly trained, smart and devoted to veterinary care. As a group, the staff and doctors often do gatherings outside of work to enjoy local restaurants, outdoor activities, etc.
