Two techs per doctor. No on-call. Ever. We built Wellpaw because we were tired of veterinary medicine burning out the people who practice it. At our Cherry Creek clinic in Denver, you'll have the time, the team, and the tools to practice the medicine you were trained for, and go home at the end of your shift. After-hours emergencies go to our 24/7 Wellpaw hospital across town, not to your phone.
