Job Description:

VCA is seeking Specialty Medical Directors at several locations across the country. Most Specialty Medical Directors are experienced specialists or emergency veterinarians, who are confident in leading a diverse group of doctors in the dynamic environment of a 24 hour practice.

At VCA, the Specialty Medical Director (MD) works with the practice administrator and the field management team, and is responsible for establishing the medical quality and patient care practiced by all doctors. The MD achieves this through strong leadership and serving as a mentor and role model for the veterinarians and staff. The MD is an integral part of the hospital management team responsible for the overall financial performance of the hospital. In addition, the MD helps create and drive the overall direction for the hospital. Depending on the size of the hospital, VCA Medical Directors split a percentage of their time in a clinical role and on administrative functions.
