Associate Veterinarian - Jackson, MI

VCA Jackson Animal Hospital is seeking an experienced Associate Veterinarian to complement the talented team at our growing practice in Jackson, Michigan.

Current students or new graduates, apply today!

At VCA, we are committed to providing a work environment allowing professional growth and a healthy work-life balance! VCA Jackson has an experienced team consisting of highly trained and experienced staff including skilled assistants and Credentialed Veterinary Technicians. Staff backgrounds include general practice, specialty, and emergency - with some staff members having almost twenty years’ experience.  

Our hospital has a unique atmosphere in that we see a variety of primary care and emergent cases. We are in a community without readily available specialty hospitals, which provides us the opportunity to work up many unique patients. It is the best of both worlds – without the hassle of typical emergency and specialty hours.  

The city of Jackson is uniquely situated within southern Michigan where you are sure to find something for everyone! It allows easy access to such places as Kalamazoo, Grand Rapids, and Chicago to the west, as well as Ann Arbor and Detroit to the east.
