Job Description:

VCA Arboretum View Animal Hospital is seeking a residency trained or board certified Oncologist to join our fast paced, AAHA accredited, 24-hour emergency, specialty, and general practice located just outside of Chicago.

Located in the affluent area of Downers Grove, our hospital currently offers specialty medicine in the areas of dermatology, critical care, neurology, internal medicine, and surgery. We just completed a remodel, which includes an interventional radiology suite. We have all the equipment one would expect, but also have a 16-slice CT, MRI, fluoroscopy, lithotripsy, and nuclear scintigraphy.

With the creation of VCA's Pet CancerCare Alliance™, you can be a part of a unique brain trust of over 65 veterinary oncologists and a network of over 35 Pet CancerCare Centers across North America. Our Medical, Radiation and Surgical Oncologists work together to bring advanced treatments, technology and education to all veterinarians by providing collaborative care, research, clinical trials and leadership to help ensure that pets are living their best possible lives.

Only 20 miles west of Chicago, Downers Grove is at the crossroads of the western suburbs, is close to O'Hare International Airport, and has three stops on the Metra commuter rail. Designated a Tree City USA, attractions include two forest preserves and several parks that give residents places to enjoy the outdoors. Downers Grove offers a high quality of life with excellent schools, beautiful parks, and a variety of restaurants and retail shops. With all the added attractions of Chicago, our city is a great place to call home.

As a member of the VCA family, your love for medicine and compassion for pets and people is matched with a commitment to your professional growth. Eligible full-time employees will be rewarded with a competitive salary and a comprehensive benefits package, including:

Health & Wellness
  • An innovative, new department focused on associate health and wellbeing, with programs such as company sponsored Headspace app subscriptions, Vault financial wellness tools, and access to additional mental health resources.
  • 401k retirement savings plan, with matching contributions of 25% of the first 4% of your eligible compensation
  • Health, dental, vision insurance with HSA/FSA, infertility benefits
  • Paid parental, vacation and sick leave
  • Flexible scheduling for work/life balance

Professional Development
  • Continuing Education Allowance and Paid Continuing Education Days
  • WOOF University, offering abundant CE for Doctors and Staff
  • Opportunities to mentor with one of the largest providers of private practice internships and residencies in the U.S.
  • Opportunities to participate in a robust clinical studies program

Additional Benefits

  • 100% paid professional liability coverage
  • 100% paid life insurance

  • Access to a network of 6,000 doctors, including more than 600 specialists
