Job Description
What if a big, modern hospital could still feel like it has your back, and give you your Sundays too?
\nAnimal Care Center of Downers Grove is a full-service, newly renovated hospital just 30 minutes from downtown Chicago, where a bright, open, nine-exam-room space meets a genuinely balanced schedule. With two surgical suites, in-house rehab, and a busy urgent care caseload, the medicine stays interesting, and with the doors closed every Sunday, so does your life outside of work.
\nThe Opportunity:
\n• A busy, varied caseload with same-day urgent care and consistent year-over-year growth
\n• Full medical autonomy on a fun, fast-paced team that still protects work/life balance
\n• Flexible scheduling with no Sundays, ever
\n• At least 3-5 years of experience in a GP or urgent care setting is required for this role
\nThe Resources:
\n• 4 full-time DVM team
\n• 9 exam rooms and 2 surgical suites in a recently renovated, modern facility
\n• Full in-house diagnostics: digital and dental x-rays, ultrasound, EKG, and IDEXX lab
\n• In-house rehabilitation with therapy laser, plus urgent care capabilities
\nThe Lifestyle:
\n• Catch a film at the beautifully restored 1928 Tivoli Theatre, then explore a walkable downtown full of independent restaurants, breweries, and a seasonal farmers market
\n• Wander the Morton Arboretum’s 1,700 acres or the quiet trails of nearby Hidden Lake Forest Preserve
\n• Hop a direct Metra train and reach downtown Chicago in under an hour
\nProSal Compensation & Benefits:
\n• Starting salary of $120,000–$150,000 plus production bonuses
\n• 401(k) with company match
\n• Access to CE courses (dentistry, ultrasound, surgery, and more) at NVA’s nearby PetOne Training Center in Addison, IL
\n• Professional liability coverage, DEA and state licensing, and VIN membership
\n• PTO, paid CE, and CE/licensing reimbursement
\n• Comprehensive health insurance coverage plans
\n• Generous staff pet discounts
\n• Final compensation commensurate with experience, skills, schedule, and scope of services provided
\nIf you want the capabilities of a large, modern hospital without giving up your weekends or your sanity, this is your sign.
