Please independently verify any critical information before relying on it. Description Remember why you became a veterinarian? You went to veterinary school to diagnose disease, solve medical problems, help patients, and build relationships with clients. Somewhere along the way, veterinary medicine started feeling different. More pressure. More metrics. Less medicine. Pine Animal Hospital in Long Beach, California is looking for an Associate Veterinarian who wants to practice thoughtful, high-quality small animal medicine in an independent, doctor-led hospital. This is not a sales job. You did not become a veterinarian to hit production targets, follow corporate scripts, or feel pressured to recommend care based on someone else's business model. At Pine Animal Hospital, the job is medicine: thoughtful diagnostics, clear communication, ethical recommendations, real case workups, real mentorship, and real support. What real medicine looks like here: In-house laboratory Digital radiography and dental radiography Point-of-care ultrasound Rapid cytology Integrated medical records Strong technician support Dedicated technician appointment windows Collaborative relationships with board-certified specialists Integrative medicine alongside high-quality Western medicine Same-day and next-day care Open 7 days Independent, doctor-led decision-making We are especially interested in veterinarians who are 1-8 years into practice and still genuinely love veterinary medicine, but may feel frustrated by production pressure, corporate mandates, or the feeling that clinical growth has been replaced by efficiency metrics. You do not need to be actively job hunting. Many of the best conversations start with simple curiosity. Pine Animal Hospital was built to be different: independent, doctor-led, medicine-first, and centered around patients, clients, doctors, and the team. If you are quietly wondering whether veterinary medicine can feel meaningful again, we would be happy to have a confidential conversation.
Requirements Required:
Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree or equivalent Licensed or eligible for licensure to practice veterinary medicine in California Interest in small animal general practice, urgent care, dentistry, surgery, diagnostics, and/or case-based medicine Commitment to ethical medical recommendations and clear client communication Ability to work collaboratively with doctors, technicians, and support staff Willingness to practice in person at Pine Animal Hospital in
Long Beach, California Preferred:
2+ years of post-graduate clinical experience Experience in small animal general practice, urgent care, emergency, dentistry, surgery, internal medicine, or diagnostics Interest in working up complex or challenging medical cases Interest in mentorship, collaboration, and clinical growth Comfort working in a busy, well-supported, team-based hospital Openness to integrative medicine alongside high-quality Western veterinary medicine This position is not ideal for someone looking for a high-volume, production-first environment. It is ideal for a veterinarian who wants to practice good medicine, grow clinically, collaborate with a strong team, and build lasting relationships with clients and patients.
