We are an established two-doctor, small animal AAHA accredited practice located at the base of the mountains in beautiful Bozeman, Montana. 

“Bozeman is called ‘the most livable place’ for good reason. Enjoy world-renowned fly fishing, dramatic mountains for hiking, mountain biking, rock climbing, skiing, hunting, and backcountry exploring, Yellowstone National Park, and impressive wildlife. When you are ready for a more city experience, dive into Bozeman’s thriving arts and culture communities, ranging from main street festivals, farmers markets, cultural centers and museums to symphonies, theaters, and art galleries.” (courtesy of https://www.visitmt.com/places-to-go/cities-and-towns/bozeman.html). 

Our hospital has two full-time doctors, and a full compliment of technicians and support staff that are dedicated to the care of the clients' animals. One of our full-time veterinarians has decided to move back east after 7 years with us. We are a close-knit team who enjoys cultivating individual and collective growth to develop everyone both personally and professionally. We have a culture of engagement, efficiency, attention to detail, and superior veterinary care and communication skills. We strongly value the culture at Foothills and pride ourselves on our highly professional cohesive team. This practice also firmly believes in fostering a healthy work-life balance. In support of this philosophy, all after-hours emergencies are sent to a local  AAHA accredited emergency hospital.

Our clinic has in-house laboratory equipment, a surgical suite with a surgical laser, digital x-ray, ultrasound, cold laser therapy, and two examination rooms. Our practice is also "paper light" in order to stay in touch with the eco-friendly approach our clients appreciate. You will be responsible for preventative wellness care, diagnostics, treatments, performing surgery and dentistry, providing client education, and building strong relationships with clients. We are looking for someone who has modest confidence in the way they practice medicine, outstanding communication skills, and is team-oriented. 

We are looking for a permanent full-time Veterinary Associate who is available Tuesday through Friday 8:30 am  5:30 pm. We discontinued our Saturday hours due to Covid-19, however when we are able to reinstate Saturday hours the shift is from 9am-1pm and there is a doctor rotation.
