Career Center

Our 24-hour emergency and specialty hospital is currently seeking to add Urgent Care services to join our emergency and critical care department. Our brand-new 19,000 sq. ft. facility has been purposefully designed with state-of-the-art equipment to assist us in fulfilling our goal of practicing quality medicine and compassionate care for patients, families, and referring veterinarians in our community. Avets has a long-standing focus on emergency, trauma, and critical care.

The Urgent Care Veterinarian will focus on non-critical cases that enter our ER/CC department. This position will include care and services of non-critical care cases, to include skin lacerations, vomiting, bite wounds, ear infections, eye and skin issues, etc. We are interested in speaking to new graduates, internship-trained candidates, and experienced GP or ER clinicians looking for a change of pace. Our goal is to provide Urgent Care services 7 days per week. The schedule will consist of shifts during peak hours, with no overnights!

Education is a daily focus at Avets. Our commitment to education is demonstrated by hospital-wide support of our internship and mentorship programs, and a team of VTS(ECC) lead training for our support staff. Additionally, we support personal and professional growth and wellness for our team members. We believe that our progressive approach to medicine and leadership creates an environment where specialists can collaborate openly as a team, allowing us to best serve the needs of our patients and clients daily.

Located in Monroeville, PA, Avets is just a 25-minute drive to the city of Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh and its surrounding areas have a lot to offer anyone considering moving to town. There is easy access to high-quality education for those with families or who are looking to grow theirs. Whether you like to explore historic museums, charming cultural districts, or local restaurants and breweries – you will never be far away from all that our city has to offer. If hiking and spending the day on the river or slopes is more your style, the beautiful Laurel Highlands region offers a wide range of outdoor activities.

We would love to meet you and show you around our city!
