Veterinary Neurologist – Sugar Land Veterinary Specialists - Sugar Land, Texas

Sugar Land Veterinary Specialists is looking to add a Full-Time Veterinary Neurologist to our team and rapidly growing hospital!

What we are looking for:

• An enthusiastic neurologist who wants to work in a friendly, collaborative environment. 
• We would want someone who will be interested in working as part of a team.  As a two-doctor service, each team member would need to be comfortable working as partners so that our patients can have seamless care when either DVM is in the building. 
• Board certified or board eligible
• A sense of humor is a must 

About SLVS:

• SLVS is a multi-specialty hospital in the suburbs of Houston, Texas. We have Neurology, Internal Medicine, Surgery, Critical Care, Oncology, Radiation Oncology, and Emergency services.
• SLVS is a great place to work. The environment is very warm and collaborative.
• Specialists go out of their way to support each other so we can all practice to the best of our abilities and for the best care of our patients.
• The hospital is large enough to allow high end practice, but small enough to be personal.
• The Neurology Service is staffed with 5 full time technicians who have been with SLVS for 2 to 8 years. They are a terrific team who get along well and take on a great deal of responsibility to allow DVMs to focus on their work. We will add further technician staff to support another Neurologist well. We have a beautiful, new Phillips Achieva 1.5T MRI. Our Diagnostic Imaging team is well-staffed and runs gorgeous and efficient scans.
• Houston is the most diverse large city in the U.S. The food scene is outstanding! Sugar Land is a beautiful suburb that is populated with highly educated and well-off folks who like to take excellent care of their pets. SLVS also draws clients from the entire greater Houston area.
• Compensation and benefits are generous and competitive. A Neurologist joining the service would have the option of a 3- or 4-day work week.

Here is the list of our Neuro Team Toys:

• Philips Achieva 1.5T MRI
• GE Light speed 16-slice CT
• Nicolet electrodiagnostics machine
• C-arm in surgery suite

• Dr. Kegge has worked in several private practices, including the AMC and GCVS. I have been at SLVS since 2016. She loves SLVS for several reasons. First, the people are amazing. It is a great team of doctors who practice with a very similar patient-first philosophy. The tech support is outstanding, Our technicians work at a very high level to allow us to focus on DVM work. Second, the size of the hospital and of Lakefield is ideal - large enough to support practicing great medicine without being impersonal. The corporation has a very light touch. Lakefield never dictates how we practice medicine but encourages us to be our best.
