Your True PTO vs No Negative Accrual: A Game-Changer for DVMs
Taking time off shouldn't come with a side of anxiety. That's where our True PTO makes all the difference. Forget about the old stress of negative accrual and having to catch up. With True PTO, your base pay is protected - no ifs, ands, or buts. The true benefit? Our veterinarians consistently pocket more cash than they typically would have if they did not have negative accrual. It's not just about avoiding financial penalties for taking a break; it's about genuinely benefiting from it.
High Producers Bonus Eligible DVMs will earn a bonus payout of up to 10% additional production in the month after contract renewal. The bonus rate will be determined by their contracted production rate and the amount of excess production. Here, you can earn a greater share of the success you help create. And the sky is the limit!

SVP's Lead Doctor Foundations program is designed to fill this gap by investing in the growth of current and emerging leaders.
Doctor Mentorship Program Not 1, not 3, but 12 months of mentorship for first year doctors! To help transition from school to clinic life, both a coach and mentor help new doctors develop their clinical and non-clinical soft skills. Build skills. Build confidence. Build relationships.
