San Leandro, CA Job Type:

Full-time A Little About Us Washington Avenue Veterinary Emergency & Specialty Hospital (WAVES) is a locally doctor-owned emergency and specialty hospital serving the East Bay, founded by longtime veterinary clinicians and leaders who previously built their careers at Bay Area Veterinary Specialists (BAVS). When BAVS closed its doors, our founding team came together to make sure the East Bay didn't lose access to high-quality emergency and specialty care. As a locally owned hospital, decisions here are made by the doctors and leaders who actually practice medicine on our floor — not from a corporate office. Located in San Leandro, our hospital offers easy access to Oakland, Berkeley, and San Francisco — with the food, culture, and outdoor access of the greater Bay Area right outside our door. You'll Never Practice Alone At WAVES, our emergency service is backed by a full specialty team, including Internal Medicine, Oncology, and Surgery, working alongside us. Collaboration is central to how we practice — whether that's a quick hallway consult, shared case management, or hands-on mentorship from doctors who built their careers on this kind of teamwork. You'll be supported by: Experienced ER doctors Internal Medicine, Oncology, and Surgery specialty teams Highly skilled technicians and support staff A culture that encourages questions, learning, and teamwork The Facility & Medicine Our hospital occupies the former BAVS location in San Leandro, equipped to support a wide range of emergency and specialty cases. We emphasize high-quality medicine, efficient workflows, and cross-department collaboration to get the best outcomes for our patients and their families.
