Veterinarian – Fish Creek Pet Hospital - Dentistry & Soft Tissue Surgery

Do you love dentistry and soft tissue surgery?

Fish Creek Pet Hospital is looking for a General Practice Veterinarian with a strong interest in dentistry and soft tissue surgery to join our established, collaborative team in Calgary, Alberta.

We have a real need for a veterinarian who is excited to take on cases and help grow these areas of our practice. If you enjoy performing dental procedures, tackling surgical cases, and helping pets live healthier, more comfortable lives, this could be a great opportunity to make a meaningful impact within a large, well-equipped hospital.

Your Opportunity to Make an Impact

Fish Creek Pet Hospital is home to more than 20 veterinarians and over 100 support team members. Our size and resources allow us to care for a diverse caseload and support a wide range of veterinary services.

We're specifically looking for someone who brings enthusiasm and clinical interest in dentistry and soft tissue surgery, helping us meet the needs of our patients and clients while contributing to the continued development of these services.

In this role, you will have the opportunity to:

• Take the lead in dentistry and soft tissue surgery, performing procedures and helping grow these services within the hospital.
• Perform dental procedures, including dental assessments, cleanings, extractions, and other treatments appropriate to your experience and training.
• Perform routine and more involved soft tissue surgical procedures based on your skill set and interests.
• Work with a varied caseload, using your clinical judgment to develop treatment plans and provide high-quality patient care.
• Collaborate with a large team of veterinarians, RVTs, and support professionals.
• Build strong client relationships through education, communication, and compassionate care.
• Continue developing your clinical skills and explore opportunities to expand your areas of interest.

Dentistry and surgery are key priorities for this hire. We're looking for someone who genuinely enjoys this side of general practice and is motivated to make it an important part of their role.

Why Fish Creek Pet Hospital?

Since opening in 2005, Fish Creek Pet Hospital has continued to grow while maintaining a commitment to compassionate, high-quality veterinary care. We moved into our custom-built facility in Calgary's Midnapore community in 2014, giving our team the space and resources to support comprehensive patient care.

What makes this opportunity exciting?

• A large veterinary team: Work alongside more than 20 veterinarians with a range of experience and clinical interests.
• Excellent hospital resources: Practice in a fully equipped facility with modern diagnostic tools and dedicated treatment areas.
• A varied caseload: Care for our own patients as well as those referred by other veterinary practices for emergency care and extended hospital stays.
• Room to develop your interests: Bring your passion for dentistry and surgery to the forefront of your practice.
• A collaborative environment: Share knowledge, work closely with experienced support staff, and contribute to a team that values quality patient care.
• An established community presence: Build lasting relationships with clients and help pets receive the care they need throughout their lives.
