Job Description:
 

Objective:
 We are seeking two full- time associate veterinarians to join our practice. The position is meant to be a destination job rather than a steppingstone. We value practice stability and long-term employment very highly. Duties include routine reproductive herd visits and sick cow, surgery, and emergency duty. There is some regulatory work. The practice is 90% dairy and 10% beef. There is some limited puppy wellness/health certification work on-farm if desired. The opportunity exists to apply production medicine skills through records analysis, profit team meetings for producers, or nutrition/milk quality troubleshooting if that is your interest. We hope new associates can bring new skills and interests to strengthen the practice. Routine work is strictly Monday through Friday. Emergency service is provided 24 hours 7 days a week, with all emergency and holiday duty divided evenly between doctors. Weekend duty is Friday night through Monday morning, with a 3-day weekend off the following week. Emergency case load is usually light.  
Training Required:
 Both new graduates and experienced veterinarians may apply. Must be able to obtain a Pennsylvania veterinary license and USDA level II accreditation. The practice pays for all licensing fees. 
Experience Desired:
 Palpation skills and proficiency with ultrasound are desired. The ability to speak Spanish would be useful. 
Salary:
 Negotiable and commensurate with experience, and consistent with professional standards. The opportunity for profit sharing/performance incentives and eventual ownership will be available. 
Benefits:
 Medical and liability insurance, disability insurance, Simple IRA, HSA, State License fees, AABP fees, clothing allowance, CE fees sufficient for PA accreditation requirements, 10 days annual paid leave, and sick days. A practice vehicle and equipment including ultrasound and smartphone are provided.

Environment:

Facilities provided by the veterinary practice:
 All clinical work is done on-farm. The practice office does have an in-house microbiology lab for milk cultures. A 4-wheel drive vehicle, ultrasound, veterinary equipment, and smartphone will be provided by the practice. 
Other Personnel :  There are 4 full time veterinarians on staff, a secretary/office manager, and a part-time technician. We use an answering service for after-hours calls.  
Practice strengths and emphasis of the business:
 Located in southeastern Pennsylvania, this practice has been in existence since 1952 serving dairy farms in southern Lancaster County as well as parts of Chester and York counties in PA and a few farms in Maryland. The clientele is primarily Amish herds of 40-60 cows as well as non-Amish herds of 100-2000 cows. We are currently a four-doctor practice, with two doctors planning to retire in the coming year. We plan to hire two replacements. New hires will have a period of riding along/mentorship to get acclimated to the practice. We believe in providing timely, quality, and up-to-date services for our clients, while maintaining a good work and life balance with the opportunity for professional development. 
Practice Area:  We are in an area that is economically stable with one of the very lowest unemployment rates in Pennsylvania. This is a hub for healthcare, retirement communities, agribusiness, tourism, trucking, manufacturing, hospitality and food services and retailers with a wide variety of major national employers and smaller local companies. Downtown Philadelphia and Baltimore are within an easy 60-90- minute drive, while nearby Lancaster City also provides a lively arts, restaurant, and entertainment scene. Hunting, fishing, boating, hiking, climbing and other outdoor recreation is readily found nearby. Most of our work is within a 20-25mile radius of the practice center. There is a strong farmland preservation movement in the area, and the presence of the plain sect communities ensures agriculture will remain here for decades to come.
