Veterinarian – No On-Call or After Hours
At Weste Animal Hospital, we believe veterinary medicine can be both high-quality and human-friendly—for our patients, our clients, and our team. We’re currently looking for a confident and compassionate general practice veterinarian to join our growing clinic on the beautiful Eastern Shore of Nova Scotia.
This is a full-time role with a four-day workweek, no weekends, and no on-call or after-hours work. Several state-of-the-art emergency clinics in the area provide excellent after-hours care for our patients, ensuring your personal time stays personal.
Appointment hours run from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with protected, generous lunch breaks. Our newly renovated clinic is designed to support excellent medicine and team well-being—with lots of natural light, well-placed skylights, and ocean views from our large private yard, complete with Adirondack chairs and picnic tables for relaxing outdoor breaks.
You’ll be surrounded by an experienced, supportive crew of veterinarians, RVTs, and client care professionals who love what they do—and enjoy doing it together. Our RVTs are anesthesia pros, quick with blood draws, and bring years of experience to the table. In fact, everyone on our team is an expert in their role—we believe that strong teams make strong medicine. We value kindness, communication, and collaboration, with a healthy dose of humour to keep things grounded.
We’re also fully equipped to support your practice with:
A full in-house Heska lab for fast and accurate diagnostics
A dedicated dental suite with dental radiography
A surgical suite with electrocautery
In-house ultrasound and radiography
Case support from Dr. Ryan Redgrave, a highly experienced clinician with broad expertise in general practice and surgery
As an independently owned practice, we make decisions as a team—and your voice matters here.
In addition to a competitive salary, we offer:
Health and dental benefits
Continuing education allowance
Licensing fees, professional dues, and liability insurance
Paid vacation, personal days, and sick leave
And the little things that make a difference: strong coffee, seaside air, and a break room that understands the power of a well-timed treat
If you’re looking for a positive, professional environment where you can do your best work and still have the time and energy to enjoy life outside the clinic—we’d love to meet you.
