VCA Veterinary Care Animal Hospital & Referral Center of New Mexico in Albuquerque is adding to our Specialty Surgery Team

We are VCA Veterinary Care Animal Hospital & Referral Center, or just VCA Vet Care to our friends. We’re located 5,312 feet above sea level* in beautiful, fun, and (if you ask us) highly underrated Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Our hospital is growing by leaps and bounds, so we would like to add new team members in pretty much every department.

Our hospital has both primary care ( GP) and specialty / ER services, including oncology, surgery, ophthalmology, and internal medicine.

It’s an amazing place to grow your career in veterinary patient care, since you’ll get hands-on experience with a huge variety of cases and have the opportunity to learn from many, many helpful and knowledgeable people.

We have a supportive, highly involved tech manager team and an experienced group of techs in every department that you’ll be able to lean on from day one.

We offer competitive pay, benefits (medical / dental / vision / retirement), and we’re even down to discuss the possibility of some relocation assistance if you’re moving from a distance.

We will happily hire both credentialed technicians and on-the-job-trained veterinary technical staff with the appropriate levels of skill and knowledge.

Eager to learn but short on experience? That’s cool too! We are 100% willing to train when we find folks who are a great fit with our culture.

Team member traits we are looking for :

Ready and willing to function as part of a team

Committed to self-improvement, personally and professionally

Flexible, in terms of scheduling availability and in terms taking what the day gives you

Receptive to new responsibilities and different approaches

Kind, respectful, food-motivated, and possessing an excellent sense of humor

The team supporting our surgical specialists helps provide a variety of state-of-the-art care, including wound management, orthopedic and soft-tissue surgeries, minimally invasive surgeries (arthroscopic, laparoscopic), as well as radiology, CT, and fluoroscopy technologies.

You would be assisting with those procedures, helping with instrument cleaning and pack prep, plus all the normal veterinary medical support staff stuff- patient restraint, IVC placement, phlebotomy, post-surgical patient recovery, etc.

The surgery service operates Monday through Friday, 8 AM to 6 PM; on-call shifts are also available for qualified individuals.
