Emergency

Veterinarian - Walker Road Animal Hospital

Annual Salary: $150,000 - $240,000 per year based on experience

Are you looking for an emergency veterinary role where you can work alongside an experienced, supportive team while continuing to grow your skills?

Join Walker Road Animal Hospital, a dynamic 24-hour general, emergency, and critical care hospital in Windsor, Ontario, where no two days are the same. Our team sees a diverse range of emergency and critical care cases while also providing some wellness care, giving our DVMs the opportunity to build their skills and explore their clinical interests.

Why Join Walker Road Animal Hospital?

Our greatest strength is our team. We genuinely support one another, both professionally and personally, and have created an environment where everyone feels valued and cared for.

Our team includes 9 DVMs, 21 RVTs/VAs, 6 VAs, 7 Client Care Representatives, and 2 administrative team members, including full-time, part-time, casual, locum, and independent contract team members.

We are proud to support veterinarians at every stage of their careers. Many of our team members began their careers with us as new graduates and have grown within our organization through mentorship and ongoing development opportunities. At the same time, our team includes clinicians with extensive industry experience, creating a collaborative environment where knowledge is shared and professional growth is encouraged.

Whether we're celebrating achievements, sharing knowledge, leveraging each other's strengths, or helping a teammate through a difficult time, we work together as a united team. Emergency medicine can be emotionally demanding, but we maintain a positive, engaging,



and supportive workplace where collaboration, compassion, and camaraderie help us provide the best possible care for our patients and their families.

A Diverse and Engaging Caseload

While our hospital primarily sees emergency and critical care patients, our veterinary team also provides some wellness care and includes clinicians with special interests in:

- Exotic companion animals, including pocket pets and birds

- Soft tissue surgery

- Emergency and critical care medicine

We are proud to offer advanced diagnostic tools, including ultrasound and endoscopy, helping our team provide high-quality, comprehensive patient care. Our brand-new facility was designed to support around-the-clock veterinary care and provide our team with the tools and space they need to deliver excellent medicine.

Mentorship & Professional Growth

Whether you're an experienced emergency veterinarian or looking to build your confidence in emergency medicine, you'll have the opportunity to learn alongside a knowledgeable and collaborative team.

We believe in supporting emerging professionals while also providing experienced clinicians with opportunities to share their knowledge and continue developing their own skills. Our team culture encourages questions, collaboration, case discussion, and learning from one another.

If there are particular areas of veterinary medicine you'd like to develop, we'd love to hear about them and explore how we can support your professional goals.

Work-Life Balance

We understand that a rewarding career also needs to leave room for life outside of work.

We strive to provide a fair distribution of weekend time off and promote a positive work-life balance across our team. Our goal is to create a schedule that allows our team members to enjoy their time away from the hospital while still providing excellent care to our patients.

Relocation support: Open to negotiation and dependent on the experience and qualifications of the successful candidate.

Our Community





Our team believes in giving back to the community we serve. We've supported initiatives including Sparky's Toy Drive and canned food drives, and many members of our team are active and participating members of the Essex County Veterinary Association.

While we've had limited opportunities for community involvement in the past, we're excited to become more engaged and make a meaningful contribution to the Windsor community in the coming years.
