Here's an opportunity for you to make a significant difference in our community!

Palliative medicine is an emerging field of veterinary medicine and Visiting Vet is dedicated to being at the forefront of it. We provide home-based consultations, supporting families in accessing palliative care services with a focus on pain management, symptom control, quality of life guidance, and euthanasia. We have a strong commitment to working alongside our patient's primary care provider and specialty veterinarians to improve outcomes.

Visiting Vet is an established mobile veterinary service in Fairfield, CA, founded in 1993 as Mobile Veterinary Services. We see primarily dogs and cats; half of our patients are large, senior dogs with mobility issues, and the other half are cats, who take a dim view of travel to a fixed site clinic.

Our current practice thrives and remains a flexible work environment. We are currently a part time practice consisting of one vet and one assistant. Dr. Murray became certified in hospice and palliative care, with an emphasis in pain management in 2018. Our goal is to expand to provide more care and coverage in the greater Solano County area and surrounding environs.

You'll be working with the support of a wonderful team who will coordinate your appointments, provide technical help during visits, and ongoing physical and emotional assistance to patients and caregivers.

We are looking for DVMs who are natural communicators and who wish to develop their skills to include palliative and end of life care. This is a growing field with opportunities for your education and professional development. Our company culture and team dynamic is the driving force behind our desire to make a lasting contribution in the field of veterinary palliative care within our industry

We offer competitive compensation and solid benefits; including PTO and palliative care-related CE allowance.
