The Animal Doctor Veterinary Hospital is located in Ventura, California, on the coast overlooking the ocean.
It really is a little gem of a coastal town! The surrounding communities of Oxnard, Port Hueneme,
Camarillo, Moorpark, Santa Paula, Fillmore, Ojai &Thousand Oaks are all part of our little corner & add lots
of cultural, housing, restaurant, & outdoor activity opportunities. Coastal fun includes quiet & safe beaches
for families & kids, surfing, harbor cruises, whale watching, fishing, beach-adjacent boardwalks, piers &
harbors for cruising & sunsets!
We are proud of our longstanding AAHA accreditation & commitment to providing exceptional veterinary
care! Our hospital is equipped with dental digital radiography, digital radiography (we send out our
radiographic studies for board-certified review), Mindray ultrasound machine, Idexx
CBC/Chem/Electrolyte/PT/PTT/T4 machines for in-house urgent care, anesthetic monitoring: ECG,
Doppler, CO2, Oxygen, Vetcorder (very cool little monitoring device!), Hot Dog warming blankets, IV fluid
pumps including syringe pump. Our cages are heated & we have two wet tables in treatment for
treatments/dental procedures. We have a dedicated surgery, isolation, three exam rooms, pharmacy, lab,
small kitchen area, & beautiful outdoor enclosed patio for staff & clients. We get lots of compliments on
our beautiful hospital. It's very peaceful & serene, not very "clinical." Our staff is AMAZING. They do it all.
They are lovely people, great with our patients & their people & each other. We have a 3+ staff-to-doctor
ratio so you can stay busy being a doctor, & our hospital manager keeps our working environment in tip-top shape. Our clients are wonderful.
We are looking for an associate to help us continue to grow the practice & provide top-notch service &
medical care for our patients. Our practice philosophy & style is to offer each of our patients no less
than what we do for our own loved ones and kids. Do you have a special interest or experience in
exotic pets? We see rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, rats & mice, turtles & lizards! We have two excellent
specialty hospitals in Ventura & many others close by that we have excellent relationships with for
consultation, referral of tough cases, or those requiring intensive care.
Our new associate will work Monday, Thursday, & Friday. You will be working those days with another
experienced veterinarian for collaboration & collegiality. Monthly staff meetings are required on Tuesday
mornings. Newer graduates are welcomed with a minimum requirement of 1+ years of experience. A great
benefit you receive through our practice is access to Slack group discussions to review cases, make

I would highly recommend anyone to work for a Vetcor clinic because of all the available resources they offer to their employees! These resources vary from continuing education to the importance of mental health and not burning out. Stonebridge has been one of the best places I have worked and has done nothing but help me pursue my goal of becoming an LVT.
There are programs including VetLife Days and Lend-a-Hand that allow you to spend time at other clinics. I have met some wonderful colleagues this way and have also been able to expand my leadership skills within Vetcor. I actually learned that I love teaching and supporting other veterinarians, especially new graduates. I love soft tissue surgery, so to be able to pass on that knowledge and skill set to new grads, giving them the confidence and skills they need to excel, has been very rewarding. It has been an amazing journey with Vetcor so far and I am excited to continue to be part of this amazing group.
The mentorship and advice from the Vetcor Chief of Staff Advisors have helped me become a better veterinarian and surgeon. They have filled me with confidence in order to become a better leader. Vetcor has been a great corporation to work for.
There is a career path for everybody and not a one size fits all approach.
Join a group of motivated veterinary professionals while taking advantage of employee programs, resources, and fantastic benefits. Join one of our many collaboration groups for Hospital Managers, Techs, and Vets! Plus, we love supporting growth in your teams' desired career paths. Gain access to mentorship at all levels, continuing education, wellness resources, and more!
Feel the pride of being part of a network of reputable and sought-after practices. You have been empowered to leave your mark on the community and it is a difference you can feel. Not only does your work benefit the lives of individual pets and their people, but your hard work and dedication has made you a cornerstone of your pet community.
