| This part of Missouri has several clear water streams and lakes along with a lot of state and national forest land. Mountain View has a population of around 2400 but we draw from towns as far as 60 miles from us. We have built our reputation on delivering the best medicine for our patients and service for our clients. Our practice is growing and we average 35-40 new clients a month. Last year we had about 11,000 client visits with approximately 7000 of those being patient visits or surgeries and the remainder being dispensing for both large and small animal clients. The gross of the practice is 42% large animal and 58% small and the services are 71% small and 29% large. The large animal consists mainly of establishing and maintaining heard health programs, nutritional consultation and providing routine services for our clients. For our companion animal clients, we provide routine services as well as diagnosis and treatment of sick animals. We also do routine and advanced surgery, including orthopedic. We have in house diagnostic equipment for large and small patients, as well as digital and portable x-ray facilities. We do provide emergency services for both our large and small animal clients. The compensation package will include: Salary negotiable depending on experience, signing bonus, Medical insurance allowance, CE allowance, AVMA dues, BNDD license, Missouri license and Paid vacation. Buy in available. I am looking for two associates one for small animals and one mixed animal practice. I wish to fine associates who are very enthusiastic about practicing quality veterinary medicine and who wish to meld their current knowledge with my years of learning and practical experience. In this way we all have the opportunity to continue learning and practice a higher level of medicine. I feel we should offer our clients new advancements in the care of their animals and to this end I am constantly trying to bring in new services that will enhance their care. This gives a new associate the opportunity to pursue a personal area of practice that they can excel. Contact me at mvac@centurytel.net or call 417-934-2323 during the day or 417-934-2492 in the evening. Sincerely: Joe Lewis D.V.M. |
