Holistic Medicine Veterinarian | Brand New Cold Laser |

Build your holistic medicine dream practice — with mountain views and modern tools.

At Carson Valley Veterinary Hospital, you’ll find the rare combination of cutting-edge medicine, natural beauty, and the freedom to build a deeply fulfilling career. Just 30 minutes from Lake Tahoe, our 15,000 sq. ft. AAHA-accredited hospital is flooded with natural light and filled with smart, collaborative people who love what they do.

We’re expanding to meet high client demand for alternative and complementary care, and we’re looking for a veterinarian with a passion for holistic medicine to lead that charge.

The Opportunity
We’re seeking a full-time Associate Veterinarian with a strong foundation in acupuncture, chiropractic care, herbal medicine, laser therapy, or other holistic modalities. You’ll take the lead on expanding our integrative medicine offerings in a highly respected, multi-doctor hospital committed to innovation and excellence.

While this role isn’t structured for mentorship, you don’t need to be a long-time specialist. We’re looking for someone with clinical confidence, high standards, and a passion for integrative care — someone ready to build something meaningful alongside a team that values collaboration and whole-patient healing.

This role is ideal for someone who:

• Is ready to relocate for lifestyle and leadership

• Wants creative freedom to shape and grow a holistic service line

• Thrives in a collaborative, high-performing medical team

• Values thoughtful, whole-patient healing and strong client relationships

• Feels energized by mountain air, natural beauty, and open space

Our Resources

• 15,000 sq. ft. facility filled with natural light and mountain views

• Dedicated holistic care area, with room to grow and make it your own

• 15-doctor team (soon to be 16!) with a collaborative, progressive spirit

• On-site CT machine

• Advanced surgical suites and endoscopy

• Digital and dental radiology

• Full support staff, including dedicated client care and technical teams

The Lifestyle
Carson Valley is where wide-open skies meet modern convenience. You’ll find mountain views, top-rated schools, local restaurants, and all the essentials — with bigger city amenities like Starbucks down the road and Trader Joe’s and Costco just 20 minutes away. This is a haven for those who crave space, peace, and proximity to world-class hiking, skiing, fishing, and boating at Lake Tahoe. Nevada's no state income tax makes the move even sweeter.
