Large Animal Veterinarians
Veterinary medicine is a demanding career, especially in large animal medicine, and we recognize veterinarians aren’t always well taken care of. We believe you should be. Our focus on team growth and wellness benefits you while benefiting your teammates. You will gain from our growth. Our team focuses on collaboration and encourages new ideas, methods, and techniques.
Large Animal Veterinarian
At Appalachian Vet, we offer 100% of the large animal services that a general practice veterinary clinic does, and are able to refer emergency surgical cases, or those requiring intensive care and hospitalization to a local University about 15 minutes away. That means our clinical team is able to see a diverse range of cases that enables you to practice a broad range of skills on a wide variety of species. A large team also means learning new skills through ongoing internal training curricula and educational initiatives.
Appalachian Advantage
We have developed an adaptable algorithm to minimize stressful on-call rotations, alleviate the fear of the unknown, and ensure our team has the ability to have clinical support available, 24-7. Our clinic utilizes innovative technology to help doctors connect with clients anywhere, and be able to completely disconnect at the end of the day.
