Veterinary Career Center

Western Veterinary Partners is seeking a locum DVM to serve practices in Chesapeake, Virginia! This is a full-time position that will require travel to our two practices in the Chesapeake area.

An inside look at our Chesapeake hospitals:

Our Chesapeake hospitals are well-established general practices that are dedicated to high standards of medicine and client care. As you rotate through our two locations based on practice needs, you’ll find yourself at small animal practices, Fear Free certified practices, and practices that can provide exceptional mentorship opportunities.  Although each of our locations are a little different, excellent medicine and well-trained support staff are a staple at them all. Many have talented tenured staff and LVTs too! Our Chesapeake locations will typically tell you that their practice culture is team-oriented, laid back, and close-knit. Each practice strives to maintain a low-stress and easy-going atmosphere, so their staff, patients, and clients enjoy their time at each location.

 For those who are unfamiliar with the area, Chesapeake, Virginia, offers a high quality of life for people looking for successful careers, great schools, miles of adventure, and rich history. In Chesapeake, you’re close to several beautiful beaches and miles upon miles of protected farmland, forests, and wetlands like the Great Dismal Swamp. It’s a big city with a small-town feel, so there’s plenty of fun opportunities in addition to many locally-owned business and friendly neighbors. Locals become nature lovers and waterway explorers, and we can’t forget the countless festivals—oyster, wine, running, birding, bluegrass, no topic is untouched! Once you find yourself in such a peaceful sanctuary of a city, you’ll quickly discover that life in Chesapeake is right up your alley.

We'll tailor our benefits package to fit your needs:

• Competitive base + production (no negative accrual)
• $50,000 bonus package
• Mileage reimbursement
• Flexible work schedule
• 3 weeks PTO with rollover
• Parental leave / bonding time
