Veterinary Anesthesiologist

Description & Requirements

Animal Dental Center (ADC) is seeking a full-time anesthesiologist to join our specialty dentistry and oral surgery private practice located in Maryland and southern Pennsylvania. We are a group of 6 Board Certified Veterinary Dentists and our 6-7 dentistry & oral surgery residents. ADC provides premier outpatient specialty dentistry and oral surgery services to the tri-state/Mid-Atlantic area, and our focus is unparalleled patient and client care. We provide exceptional work-life balance and a complete compensation package. Our work week is 4 weekdays, with no weekends or holidays, and no on-call responsibilities. We desire to expand our specialty service by collaborating with a board-certified veterinary anesthesiologist and are excited to meet the right candidate! Applicants should be a Diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Anesthesia and Analgesia or be residency trained. Exceptional communication skills and the ability to collaborate proficiently with our team are important requirements.

 This is an opportunity to create an anesthesia service that fits your lifestyle and complements our Diplomate team. Currently, anesthesia training occurs onsite annually from an ACVAA Diplomate. We have a dedicated team of veterinary assistants and technicians – many of whom are currently enrolled in licensing training, and several of whom are interested in pursuing veterinary technician specialty training.

The primary role of the anesthesiologist is to provide and manage a full anesthesia service across the 4 office locations. All our offices are newly renovated – expansion and renovations each being completed in the last 5 years. The role of the anesthesiologist will include both perioperative and postoperative care of onsite cases. Direct involvement in managing onsite cases, along with providing support to our anesthesia-focused technical staff, is required. Indirect remote support of other office locations, as feasible, is encouraged. The anesthesiologist will be directly involved in reviewing all medical records for that day’s onsite cases to determine suitability for anesthesia, planning of additional diagnostics, and formulation of a complete anesthetic plan. Work week schedule as far as office location support is open for discussion and flexible – all our office locations perform surgery daily; thus an anesthesiologist’s input and oversight will be far-reaching.

Team building and leadership is an essential role of the accepted anesthesiologist. Building and supporting relationships with ADC’s referring veterinary population is imperative. Surgery schedule involvement, training of assistants and technicians, and collaboration with the CSR team are elements of the position that can be evolved based on the interest(s) of the accepted candidate. 

Client facing expectations are also open to discussion. In general, the position welcomes feedback and creation by the accepted anesthesiologist. We are a growing, thriving, and progressive practice. ADC has been practicing in the Delmarva peninsula and southern Pennsylvania for > 30 years – it is time to expand further to continue to provide the preeminent care our referring network and clients/patients expect. We encourage all interested applicants to apply.

• 4-day work week with no on-call or holiday shifts
• Closed for the major holidays
