CAREER CENTER

Oak Grove Animal Hospital in Oak Grove, Minnesota is hiring an Associate Veterinarian to join our team!  New grads are welcome to apply! All our veterinarians are experienced, open to teaching, and supportive of one another.

Oak Grove Animal Hospital is a full-service small animal hospital, offering the best in medical and surgical care. Our amazing medical director, Dr. Amy Morgan, founded the practice in 2001 and we moved into our new building in 2011. Our team has grown to 9 full and part-time veterinarians. Dr. Morgan has worked very hard to create a collaborative environment, healthy work-life balance, and tight-knit team. We prioritize client education and value client input in all decisions about their pet’s care.

Our hospital is fully equipped with digital radiography, digital dental radiography, and we can send our labwork to Antech or use our in-house IDEXX lab. We are fully paperless and use DVMax for our electronic medical records. We utilize the services of Dr. Michelle Kaner to perform our ultrasounds. Surgery and dental procedures are scheduled Monday through Friday. Typical surgeries performed include: spays and neuters, tumor excision, GI exploratory, splenectomy, cystotomy, and simple amputations. For more complicated soft tissue surgeries and all orthopedics, we schedule with Dr. Scott Hammel who works on a mobile basis to provide expert surgical service on site. Routine dental cleanings and extractions are performed regularly. For more complicated cases we are fortunate to have local dental specialists we can refer to. Dr. Ingrid Borkoski is certified in acupuncture, chiropractic, and rehab and is scheduled to meet with clients and patients as needed on site. We have a Companion brand therapeutic laser unit that's used for all routine surgical incisions, as well as for wound care and joint pain.

Most importantly, we have an amazing support staff who are crucial to the success of patient and client care. Their input and observations are highly valued by all our doctors. Doctors and technicians work together as a team each day, whether seeing appointments or doing surgery. Every doctor has a dedicated technician each day, as well as floating technicians and assistants. To round out the group, our practice manager, Wendy, keeps us all on track and the practice running smoothly.

Our practice is open Monday – Friday, 8 am to 6 pm and Saturdays, 8 am to 12 pm. We schedule appointments from 8-12 pm and 2-6 pm, Monday through Friday. The two-hour break allows for lunch and any client communication time needed. Our doctors work 10-hour days, several days a week. We are looking for someone to work a minimum of 30 hours and can be flexible with the scheduling. Our doctors rotate Saturdays, which usually works out to one Saturday every 5-6 weeks. There are no on-call responsibilities since we have several referral/emergency locations within 30 minutes. You can learn more about our amazing practice at oakgrovevet.net.
