Urgent Care Veterinarian

Urgent Care Veterinarian (DVM)

Join a Hospital Where Great Medicine and Great People Come First

Helping Pets. Supporting Vets.

At L&L Animal Urgent Care in Kirkland, Washington, we believe veterinary medicine should be both professionally rewarding and personally sustainable.

We're a privately owned dedicated urgent care hospital providing same-day medical care for dogs and cats, bridging the gap between general practice and 24-hour emergency hospitals. Our doctors enjoy the challenge of urgent care medicine while maintaining a schedule that supports life outside of work. No wellness, vaccines, spays, neuters or dental cleanings.

As we continue to grow, we're looking for a compassionate, collaborative veterinarian who is passionate about delivering exceptional patient care and building strong relationships with clients and the veterinary community.

Why You'll Love Working at L&L

Practice Great Medicine Without the Overnight ER Schedule

Enjoy a diverse caseload of dogs and cats including medical and non-sterile surgical cases while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. We will be open Monday through Saturday from 9:00 AM-7:00 PM beginning this October. No overnight shifts, no holidays, no on-call.

Privately Owned. Veterinarian Led.

Our decisions are made by veterinarians who understand the realities of clinical practice. You'll have a voice, the autonomy to practice medicine, and leadership that genuinely values your expertise. We are women-owned, women-run, and support an inclusive and diverse workforce.
