CAREER CENTER

The world has changed, so we’ve reimagined what it looks like to be a full-time veterinarian.   

Best Friends Animal Hospital is an AAHA accredited hospital. We take pride in making sure that every patient is treated with the loving care that we would share with our own pets. We are also committed to a process of continuous improvement and offer special services like laparoscopy, ultrasonography, and laser therapy to enhance our diagnostic and treatment capabilities.   

We are looking for a hardworking veterinarian who is excited by leadership roles and high-level medicine! With our amazing and caring staff, we would support any vet who's on the team because our goal is to help each other get where they'd like to be as a vet!  

"It's not about being a robot, Communication is key! We want to know what kind of day you are having so that we can better support you. We don't want to just leave our problems at the door. We're growing a team, not just individuals who work next to each other." 

We always welcome all new clients and their cats and dogs to our pet care family. We feel you will be impressed with our experienced veterinarians, our caring staff, and our clean fully equipped hospital. We are also in the process of going Fear Free with certifications for our whole staff!   

Why Best Friends Animal Hospital?  

• Best Friends Animal Hospital is in Manchester, NH which is within driving distance of every kind of fun! If you like the mountains and being outside in nature, then you won't be far from home in Manchester. If you can't stand being outside but love shopping and exploring bustling cities, then you're still at home here! From beaches to the country and everything in between, you'll feel at home no matter what you are passionate about! One of our doctors describes living here as "living where you would vacation!" Plus, income tax doesn't exist here! Which sounds pretty good to us. 
• At Best Friends Animal Hospital, we not only strive, but we succeed in achieving a desirable work-life balance!  

"Work-life balance is very important to me...When a new doctor comes in we show them that closing at 6 means closing at 6." 

We want our doctors to practice and understand that when we say we're closed at 6, we are going to abide by that to make sure we're home and living life- not living work!
