Veterinary Referral and Emergency Center of Westbury, one of the most established and recognizable specialty practices on Long Island, is seeking a Cardiologist to join our 24-hour emergency and specialty referral practice.
VREC was established in 2003 in the current 12,000 square foot facility. Although we are proud of our equipment (4 slice CT, full endoscopic capabilities, minimally invasive surgical equipment, the only linear accelerator on Long Island, ultrasound, DR, a hyperbaric chamber, underwater treadmill, and tracheal & urethral stenting capabilities), we are even more proud of our cohesive and collaborative team. Many of the staff have been part of VREC a long time and feel this is their second home.
We consider ourselves a teaching hospital and love being able to offer progressive and innovative internship programs. All the doctors at VREC participate in their education and become mentors for the intern’s future growth and development.
As far as geography is concerned, Long Island is a great place to live and work. It has all the charms of a rural community, the support network of the suburbs, and the benefits of being a short drive to Manhattan. We are close to the beaches, close to nature, and close to the city. In addition to major and minor sporting events, just about any outdoor activity is available here, from hiking, biking, and horseback riding to apple or pumpkin picking!
