Job Info

---

VCA Northwest Veterinary Specialists located in Clackamas, OR is looking for an Emergency Veterinarian who enjoys practicing advanced medicine with a cohesive, tenured team.

The hospital was built in 1999 as a 10,000 square foot facility but it quickly grew out of that building. Within 10 years the hospital added another 5,000 square feet. A year later an additional 5,000 square foot building was added to create the Imaging Center. In 2016, due to unprecedented growth, a third building with 7,000 square feet will be added creating an entire medical complex encompassing nearly all veterinary specialties. Now, with the addition of Radiation Oncology, NWVS is a campus!

A component of community involvement is the hospital's blood bank. It was established in 2006 to provide the highest quality blood products to meet the needs of the Portland pet population. Since then volunteers have donated over 400 units of blood, worked exclusively with the Oregon Zoo (including cross matching and transfusing elephants & orangutans) and has won Spot Magazine's "Top Dog" award for the past 5 years. These accolades are well-earned and the successful candidate will also want to contribute to the betterment of the community as well.

Our hospital has a strong Internship program and encourage all candidates to have an interest in helping new doctors develop skills and to be an active participant in the interns' professional growth.

Clackamas is located near Portland-- a unique, forward-thinking city with a laid-back sensibility and a wonderful view of the world. It is often referred to as the Greenest City in America and in 2012 was listed among the top ten places to live in the United States. Along with the "green culture" it has environmental sensibilities with tons of farmers markets, opportunities for having your own garden and a very large backyard chicken raising community. This is an outdoors person's dream with mountains, beach and forest activities within minutes reach. The weather is mild thus ensuring year round activities and the relatively low population practically guarantees you having the trails to yourself. The city has multiple neighborhoods with their own traits but all are a pet lover's paradise. Portland ranks first in the country with the most dog parks per capita and often voted "Pet Friendliest City in America."
