Barry Road Animal Hospital

About the Role

 

Are you a compassionate Veterinarian looking to make a meaningful impact in a well-established, compassionate practice? Barry Road Animal Hospital has proudly been serving the Kansas City community since 1991 and is seeking a dedicated DVM to join our supportive and collaborative team.

 

Why Choose Us?

We are more than just a veterinary hospital — we are a team that genuinely enjoys working together. Our mission is to enhance the health and wellbeing of pets and the people who care for them by creating a friendly, cooperative work environment that values growth, learning, and work-life balance.

 

Our Facility:

  • Stand-alone, brightly designed building with 3 exam rooms, a fully equipped surgical suite, and a dedicated treatment area.
  • Advanced diagnostics and treatment equipment, including:
    • Digital radiography
    • Digital dental radiography (performed on every COHAT)
    • Ultrasound
    • Companion Animal Therapeutic Laser

Built for Supportive, Efficient Medicine

  • Collaborate with 2 experienced DVMs who value teamwork and open case discussion
  • Work alongside 3 RVTs in a strong 2.5:1 support staff-to-doctor ratio
  • Partner with an RVT highly proficient in COHATs who performs full dental radiographs, complete cleanings, and detailed dental charting

Our structure allows doctors to focus on diagnostics, treatment planning, and client communication — not getting buried in technical tasks. With skilled hands supporting you at every step, you can practice high-quality medicine efficiently and confidently.
