Part-Time Associate Veterinarian – General Practice

Part-Time Associate Veterinarian – General Practice

St. Louis Metro, Missouri
$55–$85/hour | Part-Time

Looking for a part-time veterinary role that gives you meaningful clinical work without requiring a full-time schedule?

DVM Focus is recruiting an Associate Veterinarian for an established companion animal practice in the St. Louis metro area. This opportunity offers a broad general practice caseload, an experienced support team, medical autonomy, and a collaborative environment.

The schedule is designed for a veterinarian seeking consistent part-time work while maintaining flexibility outside the hospital.

What You’ll Do

Your caseload may include:

• Wellness and preventive medicine
• General medical care
• Diagnostic workups and case management
• Routine surgery
• Dentistry
• Client education and communication
• Collaboration with veterinarians and experienced support staff

You’ll have the autonomy to practice medicine thoughtfully while having a capable team around you.

What They’re Looking For

• DVM, VMD, or equivalent veterinary degree
• Active Missouri veterinary license or ability to obtain one
• General medicine and surgery proficiency
• Strong communication and teamwork skills
• Ability to work both independently and collaboratively
• Approximately one year or more of clinical experience preferred

Compensation & Benefits

Market-based compensation range: $55–$85/hour , depending on experience, schedule, clinical skill set, and compensation structure.

The opportunity may also include:

• Flexible scheduling
• Medical autonomy
• Experienced technician support
• Collaborative veterinary team
• Continuing professional development
• Additional benefits based on eligibility and scheduled hours

Why This One Is Worth a Conversation

Not every veterinarian wants—or needs—a five-day commitment.

This opportunity may be especially attractive if you want consistent part-time clinical work, an established GP caseload, and the ability to practice with autonomy while still being part of a supportive veterinary team.

DVM Focus will walk you through the practice, schedule, compensation structure, team, and expectations before an introduction is made so you can decide whether the opportunity aligns with what you want.
