About The Position
IndeVets is seeking a full-time Associate Veterinarian to join our team in Louisville, KY. We offer a unique employment model designed to provide stability, support, and control to veterinary careers. As a full-time W-2 veterinarian working 4-5 days per week, you will have the ability to build a schedule you control by choosing your preferred workdays.
