What are the responsibilities and job description for the Associate Veterinarian position at Bellevue Animal Clinic?
We are committed to providing the very best veterinary services in Little Rock & Maumelle. Each hospital is a full-service veterinary hospital with medicine and surgery, boarding and grooming. We also carry quality pet foods and supplies. Behavior counseling is available to help both you and your pet develop a lifelong, loving relationship.
Two clinics are long time members of the American Animal Hospital Association. This association develops a higher level of commitment to our patients through very rigorous standards with regular inspections. These inspections include our facilities, equipment, record-keeping, and patient care. Only the top 6% of veterinary practices achieve AAHA certification.
Our five doctors within the partnership have a total of over 90 years in practice. All our doctors are members of the American Veterinary Medical Association, as well as state and local associations. They have all been active in veterinary organizations, civic groups, and their churches. To assure that they offer the latest in every phase of pet care, all doctors and staff participate regularly in continuing education. Although each has his or her own special interests, they are all experienced in medicine and surgery of companion animals. Our doctors and staff will treat your pet like one of our own. Although there is no place like home, we make every attempt to make your pet as comfortable as absolutely possible. Special belongings are welcome during your pet’s stay.
