Summit Veterinary Referral Center is seeking a part or full-time board certified or residency trained veterinary dentist to join our growing, exceptional team in Tacoma, Washington.

Summit Veterinary Referral Center is not your typical state of the art 24 hour emergency and specialty center.  We hold morning cage-side rounds.  We employ a veterinary social worker for client and staff support, 3 days per week.  Our DVM team is outstanding and genuinely enjoys cross-service collaboration.  We support strong relationships with our referring doctors and offer frequent small-group format continuing education events which encourage formation of new relationships and connections.  We recognize that our staff is our greatest resource and strive to take very good care of our people, and we want staff to learn, grow, and fully utilize their skill sets.  

Our desire to add veterinary dentistry services is driven both by significant regional need, as well as direct requests by our referring veterinarian community.  We would expect fairly rapid establishment of a busy service, and the ability to grow with additional doctors in the future.

The successful candidate will be given the opportunity to have active input in the organization of the newly added dental service, as well as participate in selection of the specialty equipment and instrumentation required.  A competitive salary with a great benefit package will be offered to full-time candidates.

Summit was founded in 2010, is proudly supported by National Veterinary Associates and has enjoyed continuous growth throughout our history.
