This opportunity is ideal for a veterinarian who values practicing quality medicine, building meaningful client relationships, and creating a long-term career in a supportive, independently owned environment.

New graduates who are looking for mentorship are encouraged to apply, as are experienced veterinarians seeking greater autonomy and a healthier pace. One of the unique advantages of this opportunity is lifestyle. Our location allows for multiple living options depending on your goals. You can choose the convenience of northern Fort Wayne, including the highly regarded Northwest Allen County Schools area, or enjoy quiet rural living with acreage and country surroundings closer to Albion while remaining within an easy drive of Fort Wayne amenities.
