Veterinary Criticalist

Mission Veterinary Emergency and Specialty (MVES) is seeking a residency-trained or board-certified critical care specialist.

Mission is a well-known Specialty hospital founded in . We started the practice with a commitment to our RDVM’s, their clients, and pets.

We have not varied from that commitment. Daily communication with RDVM’s and clients are the norm for our practice. We work diligently to reinforce those interpersonal relationships that provide the cornerstone to our success.

Our growth and success can be attributed to our commitment to our clients and referring veterinarians, collaboration and education.

Collaboration : Our ECC, internal medicine, and surgery departments work to create a seamless transition for case management.

The top priority is the best care for each patient. That translates to cooperation between specialists to provide top-quality care.

Our criticalists have cage-side rounds each morning with interns and nursing staff. These rounds offer direct interaction with the criticalist, keeping them in direct contact with cases.

Case transfers occur daily with direct communication between our specialists.

Education : Mission offers a rotating internship and a surgical internship. We provide radiology rounds weekly for our interns, and our interns experience daily ICU rounds in the morning before specialists’ appointments.

Also, our interns have four formal presentations during the year. Our interns have successfully transitioned to private practice and residencies.

Most recently, our three interns placed into ECC residency (Milwaukee), dentistry residency (KC), and surgical internship (here at MVES).

We work hard to provide opportunities for each intern to reach their professional aspirations.
