We’re looking for an experienced full-time Registered Veterinary Technician (RVT) with a strong interest in surgery to join our growing team.

- Inventory management and implant preparation
- Post-operative recovery monitoring and pain management
- Client communication surrounding surgical admissions, discharge instruction, and follow-up care
- Maintaining and refining surgical protocols alongside our surgeons
- We perform multiple orthopedic procedures everyday, so efficiency, attention to detail, and strong teamwork are essential.

- Registered Veterinary Technician (RVT) in good standing with the OAVT
- Strong anesthesia knowledge and confidence in a surgical setting
- Experience in orthopedics or referral practice is an asset (but not required)
- Excellent communication skills with both clients and colleagues
- A calm,



focused presence in high-stakes situations
- A genuine interest in continual learning and surgical excellence
- Ability to lift 45 lbs unassisted
- We’re looking for someone who enjoys the technical side of veterinary medicine, values precision, and wants to keep building their surgical skill set.

- Comprehensive health & dental benefits (no co-pay for full-time team members)
- CE allowance and paid CE days to support professional growth
- Generous paid time off
- Staff discounts on veterinary services
- A supportive, privately owned practice where your voice matters
- AAHA-accredited standards and a progressive approach to medicine
- At CMVH, surgical technicians are respected, empowered, and encouraged to take ownership of their role in patient outcomes.
