About The Position

Lebanon Equine Clinic is seeking a Weekend/Overnight Equine Emergency Veterinarian to provide dedicated after-hours coverage for our established equine community. This is an on-call-from-home, ambulatory position, not an overnight hospital shift. The veterinarian will have the autonomy to triage cases, respond to field emergencies when needed, and provide critical after-hours care. The role focuses on field-based equine emergency medicine, with common after-hours cases including colic, lacerations and wounds, choke, down horses, suspected fractures, ocular emergencies, and other acute illnesses and injuries requiring after-hours assessment. The veterinarian will be responsible for triage, assessment, stabilization, treatment, client communication, and determining the appropriate next step for the patient. Lebanon Equine does not maintain hospitalized patients overnight; horses requiring hospitalization or advanced referral-level care are directed to an appropriate referral facility.
