<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 Sangaree at Cane Bay 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>One of the fastest-growing corners of the Charleston metro. An AAHA-accredited hospital with a loyal following. And an open seat at the ownership table. Sangaree Animal Hospital at Cane Bay is seeking a partner doctor — real equity, a real voice in how the practice grows, and support behind you instead of the risk of going solo. You'd join a two-doctor team that's been keeping tails wagging since 2014 and has the "Best of Summerville" hardware to prove it, in a Berkeley County market up 35% over the past decade.</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 & 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 South Carolina</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>Cane Bay sits just outside Summerville, South Carolina, in Berkeley County — one of the fastest-growing counties in the country, up 35% over the past decade. It's Lowcountry living with a master-planned community feel, and downtown Charleston, its restaurants, and the coast all a short drive away.</p>
