Veterinarian
About The Position
Skeet Club Veterinary Hospital is seeking an experienced small animal veterinarian who enjoys general practice, routine surgery, and building lasting relationships with clients and their pets. This opening is exclusively at our Skeet Club location in High Point. You will join a seasoned team that values thoughtful medicine, teamwork, and respect for every role. The Role You will care for dogs and cats through preventive visits, sick appointments, selected urgent cases, and routine soft tissue surgery. Appointments are generally 30 minutes, giving you time to examine patients, explain recommendations, and make a plan with each family. Dermatology with depth. Approximately 30%–40% of cases involve ears and skin. We value cytology, clear treatment plans, client education, and follow-through. Selected urgent care. Work-ins may include vomiting, diarrhea, breathing concerns, limping, dog bites, cat abscesses, and lacerations. Treat appropriate cases in-house and refer when a patient needs more. Routine surgery with referral support. Perform spays, neuters, mass removals, enucleations, and laceration repairs. A visiting specialist handles orthopedics and advanced dental surgery. Our medical director, Dr. Ashley Kimery, handles dentistry, so dental experience is welcome but not required. Clinical Tools and Support Equipment for daily practice: Digital radiography, ultrasound, an in-house IDEXX laboratory, a monitored surgical suite, and a dedicated anesthesia recovery area. Dental care with room to grow: Skeet Club has one dental station with digital dental radiography and a high-speed drill. A new dental machine is on the way, and the planned hospital renovation includes a new dental suite. An opportunity to use endoscopy: An endoscope is on site for a doctor interested in using it or developing that skill. Rehabilitation on the horizon: Dr. Kimery is working toward certification in rehabilitation and physical therapy, which she hopes to complete by summer 2027. The goal is to offer those services in-house afterward. An experienced support team: Our approximate support staff to doctor ratio is 2:1. Assistants help with patient care, while technician appointments cover appropriate services such as injections, blood draws, nail trims, and blood pressure checks.
