SmartVet Veterinary Services is excited to expand our team with the addition of an Urgent Care Associate Veterinarian! This is a new position for our practice, and we are thrilled about the opportunity to provide an additional level of care and accessibility to pets and their families throughout the Normal-Bloomington community.
This position is ideal for a veterinarian who enjoys the variety, pace, and problem-solving that comes with urgent care medicine. You’ll have the opportunity to treat patients who need timely medical attention while working alongside a supportive veterinary team committed to providing compassionate, high-quality care.
Because this is a newly created position, the incoming veterinarian will also have the exciting opportunity to help us grow and shape our urgent care services as we expand this offering for local pet owners.
Our preferred schedule is Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, allowing us to provide greater access to veterinary care during times when pet owners often have fewer options available.
However, we understand that the right schedule looks different for every veterinarian. We are open to discussing and negotiating alternative schedules and encourage interested candidates to connect with us even if the preferred weekend schedule does not perfectly fit their needs.
Our goal is to find the right veterinarian for the team while creating a schedule that supports both the needs of our community and a sustainable work-life balance.
We are looking for a veterinarian who:
Urgent care or emergency experience is certainly welcomed, but we are also interested in speaking with veterinarians who have a strong general practice background and are excited to expand their urgent care skills.
At SmartVet, this new urgent care position represents more than simply adding another doctor to the schedule. It is an opportunity to expand access to veterinary care in our community, support local pet owners when unexpected medical needs arise, and continue building the services our practice can provide.
For the veterinarian joining us, it is also a unique opportunity to step into a newly developed role and have a voice in how urgent care at SmartVet continues to grow.
If you are looking for an opportunity that combines interesting medicine, schedule flexibility, and the chance to help build something new, we would love to meet you!

Heartland Veterinary Partners is a support organization that is committed to improving the lives of veterinarians. We purchase veterinary practices and provide operational support to relieve administrative burdens such as payroll, recruiting, HR, marketing and accounts payables. If needed, we invest to support growth. The practices maintain their unique branding, culture and clinical autonomy.
At Heartland, we believe that selling a veterinary practice shouldn’t mean losing what makes it remarkable. When we acquire a practice, the doctor comes first. We listen closely to their needs in order to create a one-of-a-kind solution to ease their administrative burdens—all without disrupting their day-to-day operations, the culture they’ve fostered, and the relationships they’ve built. In other words, the name over the door doesn’t go away. The headaches of running a business do.
Partnering veterinarians appreciate an improved work-life balance, less financial worry, and the confidence that their teams will be in good hands. Best of all, they get to focus on why they entered the business in the first place: to care for animals and to be present when their clients need them most. Practice team members enjoy the warm culture of their individual community practices combined with the support and resources that Heartland brings to the table.
Improving the lives of veterinarians means supporting them at all stages of their careers. Whether you're a veterinary student or a new graduate looking for hands-on learning to begin your career or an experienced veterinarian looking to tackle management and leadership opportunities, we keep your goals at the heart of everything we do.
The Heartland Support Center team is hardwired to serve. We follow the philosophy of servant leadership and put the needs of others first with a genuine desire to help. As a result, Heartland’s practices count on team members to be there for them with heart and solution, not a corporate agenda.
