Managing Veterinarian

All Creatures Animal Hospital | East Amherst, NY

Step into a leadership role where your voice matters, your ideas are welcomed, and your impact is felt every single day.

All Creatures Animal Hospital, a thriving and well-established practice just outside Buffalo, is seeking a Managing Veterinarian to lead our growing team. This is an exceptional opportunity for a seasoned Managing Veterinarian—or an experienced associate ready to elevate their career into leadership—with the support, resources, and autonomy to build something special.

Why All Creatures?

Since 2003, All Creatures Animal Hospital has experienced incredible, sustained growth and has earned a loyal client base. Our busy, progressive practice offers an exciting and diverse caseload including:

  • Primary care and soft tissue surgery
  • Dentistry
  • Limited emergency care
  • Avian, exotic, and even zoo animal medicine

You’ll join a collaborative team of 3 doctors and 7 licensed veterinary technicians, supported by modern equipment and a positive, humor-filled culture that thrives in a fast-paced environment.

Small companion animals make up about 60% of our caseload, but if mixed species or exotics spark your interest, you’ll have the opportunity to pursue those passions as well.

The Role

As Managing Veterinarian, you’ll partner closely with the Hospital Manager to lead both medical excellence and practice growth. With 4–8% protected administrative time, you’ll focus on:

  • Advancing high-quality, progressive medicine
  • Mentoring and leading a strong clinical team
  • Driving financial and operational performance
  • Growing the practice through innovation and community involvement

You’ll never lead alone—NVA provides robust support including practice management training, recruiting, marketing, HR, legal, IT resources, an industry-leading mentorship program, and access to a veterinarian-operated Medical Advisory Board.

Schedule You Can Enjoy

  • Typically a 4-day work week
  • One rotating Saturday per month
  • Thoughtfully structured hours that support work-life balance

Hospital Highlights

  • 6 exam rooms, surgery suite, and treatment area
  • Digital radiography and dental X-ray
  • Ultrasound
  • Class IIIb laser
  • Cryo unit, tonopen
  • Isoflurane & sevoflurane anesthesia
  • Cardell monitoring

Compensation & Benefits

  • Base salary: $120,000–$150,000 + production bonuses
  • Up to $40,000 in personalized sign-on bonuses
  • $20,000+ relocation assistance with a dedicated relocation partner
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance
  • 100% liability coverage
  • 401(k) with company match
  • CE days and generous allowance
  • Paid vacation and sick time
  • Paid state license, DEA, and professional dues
  • Wellness, gym, and pet benefits
