OverviewMission: Give every new graduate the structure, mentorship, and support to become a confident, skilled, and compassionate veterinarian.
Traditionally, new veterinary graduates have had three main paths: an internship, specialization, or jumping straight into practice. We've created something different: a structured, supportive six-month program that builds strong clinical skills and strong communication skills side by side, with a dedicated mentor and our full veterinary network behind you.
This is a competitive program, and we accept a limited number of applicants.
What You'll LearnClinical Medicine and Surgery- Primary and acute care, including complex medical workups with long-term follow-up.
- Foundational dentistry and spay/neuter surgery training.
- RECOVER CPR certification and point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) training.
- Monthly case rounds and knowledge assessments that reinforce your learning throughout the program.
Communication- We teach communication with the same rigor as medicine, because it is just as vital. The best treatment plan only works when clients understand it and trust it.
- Explaining diagnoses, treatment options, and estimates in clear, compassionate language, and navigating difficult conversations with confidence and empathy.
- Communicating effectively with your care team so every patient gets coordinated, consistent care.
What You Bring- A DVM or equivalent degree from an accredited veterinary school (recent or upcoming graduates).
- Eligibility for veterinary licensure in the state where you'll practice.
Who You Are- A tenacious learner eager to develop your skills in general practice, surgery, dentistry, and more.
- Someone who loves advanced general practice and the problem-solving it takes to work through complex cases.
- Someone who values the human-animal bond and wants to care for patients and their pet parents over a lifetime.
- A communicator who knows that how you explain care matters as much as the care itself.
- A team player who uplifts those around you.
What Success Looks Like- You confidently manage a full primary and acute care caseload.
- You perform routine spay/neuter and Stage 1-2 dental procedures independently.
- Clients understand and trust your recommendations, and your team relies on your clear communication.
- You've built strong relationships with your mentor, your practice team, and our broader DVM network.
What We Offer- A dedicated mentor who applied to join this program because they're passionate about teaching the next generation of veterinarians.
- Access to our larger veterinary network through our connected DVM channels, where you can ask questions, discuss cases, and learn from experienced doctors across all of our practices.
- A balanced caseload that grows gradually as your confidence does.
- Internal and external continuing education.
- Generous PTO for rest and enjoyment.
- A culture of relationship building and learning from one another (yes, our teams will likely learn from you, too!).

- 401(k) with matching contributions.
