Emergency Veterinarian

Tempus Veterinary Recruitment · United States

Introduction
Our client is a 24/7 emergency and specialty veterinary hospital in Miami, Florida, seeking an experienced Emergency Veterinarian to join its team on either a full-time or part-time basis. The hospital provides emergency and specialty care for dogs and cats across Miami, South Miami, and Pinecrest, with a focus on delivering skilled, compassionate care for patients facing urgent or life-threatening conditions. The practice has more than 20 years of expertise across a wide range of specialty and emergency medical services.

Role Description and Responsibilities
The Emergency Veterinarian will provide real-time emergency care for sick and injured patients while managing hospitalized cases in a fast-paced clinical environment. Responsibilities include triaging, assessing, and diagnosing patients, developing and overseeing treatment plans, performing surgeries, delivering critical care, and partnering closely with veterinary technicians to ensure high-quality execution of patient care. The veterinarian will work alongside specialists and continue developing their triage, critical assessment, clinical, and leadership skills through access to advanced training and a wider professional network. This position is for an experienced veterinarian.

Practice Details
The hospital is open 24/7 and provides emergency care and 24-hour hospitalization alongside specialty services in anesthesia, acupuncture, critical care, internal medicine, pain management, oncology, and surgery. Advanced diagnostics are available onsite to support the management of urgent and life-threatening cases. The hospital operates as an emergency and specialty referral center rather than a general practice and works closely with primary care veterinarians throughout South Florida, with patients returning to their referring veterinarian for follow-up care once specialist services are completed. Routine preventive services such as vaccinations and parasite prevention are not provided. The hospital serves Miami, South Miami, and Pinecrest and maintains strict standards of medical care.

Team
The hospital has eight DVMs alongside a great tenured support team. The medical team works collaboratively across emergency and multiple specialty disciplines, with veterinarians supported by technicians during the assessment, treatment, and management of patients. The hospital is fully staffed with both English- and Spanish-speaking team members and provides an environment focused on collaboration, continued clinical development, and high-quality patient care.
