If you're a veterinarian who enjoys practicing solid, hands-on medicine and feels confident in the surgery suite, this could be a great next step.
We're partnering with a well-established small animal practice in Airdrie, just north of Calgary, that is looking to add a skilled and collaborative DVM to its team. This clinic is deeply rooted in the community and known for its long-standing client relationships, supportive culture, and commitment to quality care.

The clinic is well equipped and designed to support effective, high-quality medicine, allowing veterinarians to practice confidently and independently while still having support when needed.
The Role
This opportunity is best suited to a veterinarian with 2-5 years of clinical experience who is comfortable and confident performing surgery. You will be expected to handle routine and intermediate soft-tissue procedures independently and contribute meaningfully to the practice’s surgical caseload.
Key responsibilities include:
- Providing comprehensive medical care in a general practice setting
- Performing routine and advanced soft-tissue surgeries with confidence
- Managing dental procedures and dental surgery
- Communicating clearly and compassionately with clients
- Collaborating closely with a supportive veterinary and technical team
Candidates must be licensed or eligible for licensure in Alberta.

- 2-5 years of experience in small animal general practice
- Strong surgical and dental skills
- Confident clinical decision-making and case management
- A team-oriented mindset with strong communication skills
What's Offered
- Competitive base salary with bonus potential
- Signing and relocation incentives
- Continuing education support, including CE allowance and conference access
- Paid licensing fees and professional dues
- Modern equipment including digital X-ray, digital dental radiography, ultrasound, and in-house laboratory
- Vacation time and paid time off
