Job Description
Hello! This is Warm Springs Pet Hospital. We are a large and thriving practice in south Fremont, looking for the right person to join our wonderful staff.
About Us
We started in 2016 and have grown quickly into a 9-doctor hospital. We get to see many exciting cases and surgeries each day, and we have been lucky to be one of the highest rated clinics in Alameda County.
What We Offer
Work/Life Balance: Our last scheduled appointments are 90 minutes before closing. That way, we all go home on time each day. Most other places schedule appointments up to closing, which makes the work hours longer and more unpredictable.
Support: You’ll always be working alongside a large team of back staff who are friendly and eager to assist you. We have a structured training guideline and managers who are there to help with any questions as you become acquainted with our office.
Compensation: Our base pay is very competitive, and we also offer various monthly bonus opportunities which can greatly add to overall pay. Starting as of June 2022, we are also offering a $3,000 hiring bonus for a full-time experienced assistant.
What We Are Looking For
This position is for an experienced veterinary assistant. You need to have at least 1 years’ experience working in the treatment area of a veterinary hospital. If you are an RVT, please see our open ad for Veterinary Technicians. If you don’t have any prior experience working in a veterinary hospital but would like to start, please see our ad for veterinary receptionists.
We are ideally searching for a full-time candidate. Full time is 5 days/week, starting at 9am and going to 5pm. Willingness to work Saturdays is a plus but not a requirement. The most important thing for us is to find someone who gets along well with others and is comfortable working in a large team setting.
What You'd Be Doing
As a veterinary assistant in our hospital, your duties will include: Surgery preparation, anesthesia monitoring, taking x-rays, running bloodwork, giving vaccines, restraining pets, dental scaling, basic injections, assisting doctors and RVTs, etc. Many other clinics use their vet assistants as glorified receptionists or kennel attendants but at our office, the role of veterinary assistant is very much as hand’s-on and exciting role.
