Horizon Veterinary Specialists is seeking a Board-Certified Veterinary Surgeon to join our growing specialty team in Ventura.
Horizon Veterinary Specialists is a privately owned, rapidly growing emergency and specialty hospital located along California’s stunning coastline. Founded in August 2018 by five board-certified veterinarians, Horizon was built with a mission to inspire positive change in the veterinary community—for patients, clients, and the dedicated professionals who make this work possible.
Our state-of-the-art facility is equipped with advanced medical technology, including endoscopic equipment and a high-quality ultrasound unit, allowing our team to practice at the highest level of care. Just as important, we are deeply committed to fostering a positive, inclusive, and educational culture. Our partners have cultivated a team of kind, collaborative, and highly motivated professionals who are passionate about supporting one another, our patients, and the community we serve.
Why Ventura?
Ventura offers an exceptional quality of life with a unique blend of coastal beauty and laid-back California charm. Located between Santa Barbara and Los Angeles, Ventura provides easy access to beaches, hiking, and outdoor recreation, all while maintaining a more relaxed and approachable lifestyle compared to larger metro areas. With a vibrant downtown, local restaurants, and a strong sense of community, Ventura is an ideal place to live and work.

This is a unique opportunity to bring a new specialty service to the hospital and truly make it your own, working in a collaborative environment with strong caseload potential and the support needed to thrive.
