Veterinarian-Urgent Care

Veterinarian – Atlas Veterinary Urgent Care (Augusta, ME)

Still searching for your unicorn hospital? We are definitely working hard to create it!
We won’t pretend we’ve got everything figured out. What we *do* have is a brand-new, shiny, urgent care clinic that’s already overflowing with patients, a team that’s learning and growing together, and a culture built on strength, compassion, and trust.

About Us

Atlas Veterinary Urgent Care just opened on September 8th, 2025, and Augusta, ME showed up in a big way! We’re still working out the kinks (ie. daily chaos), but in the middle of it all is a team that shows up for each other with respect, laughter, some sass, a few F-bombs, and plenty of snacks.

Who We’re Looking For

An urgent care/ER-style veterinarian who is:

• Open-minded, adaptable, and flexible, and authentic
• Goes with the flow of the day, and tackles the intensity of Urgent/ER medicine
• Comfortable working evenings, weekends, and select holidays
• Excited to grow with us as a team

Bonus Points If You:

• Have soft tissue surgery skills (splenectomies, enterotomies, GDVs, etc.)
• Are experienced with exotics

What We Offer

• Privately owned clinic (no corporate red tape)
• Competitive wages benefits (we aim for corporate-level packages, but where we can’t quite match, we make up for it with transparency, grit, and genuine care)
• A chance to build something from the ground up—your input actually matters!

Current Hours (we do plan to extend these hours over time!)

• Mon–Fri: 12p–8p
• Sat: 10a–8p
• Sun: 10a–6p

If you’re a vet who thrives in organized chaos, values authenticity over polish, and wants to join a team that works hard, swears a little, snacks a lot, and supports each other every step of the way—we’d love to meet you!
