Suffield Veterinary Hospital is hiring a full-time veterinarian to provide comprehensive medical, surgical, and dental care to a small animal and exotic caseload.
The ideal candidate is comfortable with canine and feline dentistry (exotics dental care a plus), performs routine and GP surgeries (no orthopedic or neurosurgery), and builds strong client relationships to support the human-animal bond. Exposure to reproductive cases is included, with interest in canine reproduction welcomed. Strong communication, dedication, and a “say yes to pets” attitude are key qualities.

Hours of operation are Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday 7:30am to 6:00pm, Wednesday and Friday 7:30am to 5:00pm, and Saturday 8:00am to 1:00pm, with a daily scheduled lunch break from 12:00pm to 1:00pm.
- A 2.5-to-1 staff to doctor ratio. You will have the support—and respect—you need to be excellent for our patients. Currently, our team consists of 5 DVMs, 6 licensed technicians, 6 veterinary assistants, 6 CSRs, and 1 kennel attendant.
- All the benefits you deserve—health, dental, vision, retirement—plus: Continuing Education (CE) allowance, uniform allowance, pet discounts, relocation assistance, employment sponsorship, Plumb’s/VIN membership, plus we will cover your dues, license fees, and AVMA-PLIT!
- Paid time off. Catch your breath with paid holidays, PTO, and Continuing Education days each year. Take the time you need to recharge.
- Partnership opportunities through Veterinary Practice Partners (VPP), where more than 260 partners co-own practices across 200 locations. VPP offers unmatched support in operations, marketing, and finance, allowing you to focus on your passion for veterinary medicine.
Requirements
- Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) or VMD degree from an accredited institution.
- Valid veterinary license in the state of Connecticut

We offer in-house IDEXX laboratory capabilities, digital dental and traditional X-Ray, and in-house ultrasound. We also have access to a variety of specialty clinics and ERs in our area, as well as a traveling specialist ultrasonographer for more complicated workups.

We prioritize a team-oriented, inclusive atmosphere where work-life balance is essential. Our compassionate approach ensures that our staff, patients, and clients feel valued. We proudly collaborate with local rescue groups, service dog programs, and support community outreach.
Our hospital is located just 20 minutes from Hartford, with easy access to local attractions, UCONN sports, and is only 3 hours from NYC and 2 hours from Boston.
