Veterinarian - Co-Owner at Veterinary Practice Partners

<p><strong>Veterinarian – Co-Owner</strong></p> <p><strong>The opportunity</strong></p> <p>Are you ready to take the next step in your veterinary career—not just as a clinician, but as a practice co-owner? We're looking for a full-time DVM who wants to be a co-owner, not just an employee. Our Union Hill practice is growing steadily with a loyal client base, and we're adding a doctor who can step into real equity ownership alongside a team that already knows how to run a great hospital.</p> <p>This is a partnership model, not a corporate roll-up. You buy in, you own a meaningful stake, and you share in the practice's growth and value. Your name is on the door — and on the balance sheet.</p> <p><strong>You run the medicine</strong></p> <p>No mandated protocols. No corporate formulary telling you what to prescribe. No production quotas dictating how long you spend in an exam room.</p> <p>You decide the workup. You decide the treatment plan. You decide how you practice medicine, because you're the one accountable for the outcome — and the one who benefits when patients and clients stay with you for a decade.</p> <p><strong>What you'd own and operate</strong></p> <ul> <li>An established caseload with room to grow — you're not building from zero</li> <li>Leadership in medical decision making and clinic culture</li> <li>A voice in equipment, hiring and scheduling decisions</li> </ul> <p><strong>Compensation &amp; equity</strong></p> <ul> <li>Competitive base salary + production</li> <li>Distributions based on hospital performance and your equity share</li> <li>Leadership training and mentorship from experienced partners</li> <li>Full benefits: medical, dental, vision, PTO, 401(k), CE</li> <li>VPP-facilitated partner financing (loan support available)</li> </ul> <p>We'll walk you through the full economics — buy-in amount, financing options, historical distributions — early in the conversation. No surprises at the offer stage.</p> <p><strong>What we're looking for</strong></p> <ul> <li>DVM/VMD from an AVMA-accredited school, licensed or license-eligible in Georgia</li> <li>Small animal general practice experience; comfortable with routine surgery and dentistry</li> <li>Genuine interest in ownership — you want to build something, not just work a shift</li> <li>The judgment and communication skills to be trusted with autonomy</li> </ul> <p><strong>Location</strong></p> <p>Canton sits in Cherokee County, Georgia, in the North Georgia foothills — about 40 miles up I-575 from Atlanta. The Etowah River runs through town, with Lake Allatoona and the Blue Ridge close by, and the county has grown 27% over the past decade.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
