Managing Veterinarian

Lead with impact, not paperwork.

At Coronado Veterinary Hospital, we believe our doctors should spend their time practicing medicine, mentoring, and making a difference, not buried in charts or tech work.  With ScribbleVet AI-powered dictation and a high technician-to-DVM ratio, you’ll focus on being a doctor while our skilled team and smart tools support you.

We’re seeking a Managing Veterinarian to guide our thriving General Practice + Urgent Care hospital, serving small animals (seeing exotics is a plus!).  This is an opportunity to shape the medical vision of a dynamic practice, grow as a leader, and still enjoy a fulfilling life outside of work.

Why Coronado?

• Exciting, diverse cases – No two days are alike, from routine care to urgent and complex cases.
• Supportive, skilled team – Credentialed technicians and high staff-to-doctor ratio mean you practice medicine, not tech duties.

• Active Arizona license (or ability to obtain)
• Strong communicator and decision-maker
• Proven leadership experience or a clear passion for developing it

About Sierra Vista:

If you love the outdoors, Sierra Vista is a hidden gem.  Nestled at 4,500–5,000 feet elevation, our “sky island” climate runs about 20 degrees cooler than Phoenix.  You’ll have easy access to:

• Hiking, biking, horseback riding, birding, and off-roading
• Kartchner Caverns State Park & Parker Canyon Lake
• Nearby historic towns like Tombstone and Bisbee
• Fort Huachuca’s recreational areas and military museum

It’s no wonder Sierra Vista is internationally known as the “Hummingbird Capital of the United States.”
