Bridgton Veterinary Hospital is searching for a veterinarian, full time or part time, in the Lakes Region of Maine, right where some of Steven King’s best novels are based.  Don’t worry, we know our way out of the dome, there hasn’t been a monster mist in years, and we do not maintain a pet sematary.  We are just a great team that does our best to keep a bit of humor in each day. 

Our hospital is a small, close knit, privately owned, practice in Maine's vacationland.  We have a dedicated client base; a significant number of them have been with us for decades.  We are blessed with a strong support staff whom we encourage to continue their education in the subjects they are passionate about.  We focus strongly on preventive medicine and client education.  We mainly see dogs and cats, but we do have a small group of clients who own rabbits, rats, and guinea pigs.  So a new doctor with an interest in small furry creatures would be a bonus. 

Responsibilities will include general healthcare services and routine surgical procedures.  The practice owner Dr. Gary Wheeler has a passion for veterinary dentistry so there is a great opportunity for learning in that field.  We would happily encourage you to pursue continued education in a specialty that interests you.  You will have a four day work week with no after-hours emergencies or on-call hours.   We offer full health, vision, and dental insurance as well as matching 401K contributions, paid time off, paid continuing education, VIN membership, and free pet boarding in our kennel.

Western Maine is a great place to live for the outdoor enthusiast, with amazing hikes of all sizes, Sebago, Long, and Norway Lakes as well as countless ponds providing amazing fishing opportunities, and we have five incredible ski mountains, Shawnee Peak, Sunday River, Cranmore, Mt Abram, and Lost Valley, all within a half hour drive of Bridgton.  Our town is also centrally located between North Conway, New Hampshire and Portland, Maine.  These two cities offer vast choices of high end restaurants and shopping opportunities.   

If you might be interested in joining our team, please reach out to the practice manager, Erin Barnes, 207-647-8804  or manager@bridgtonvets.com
