Job Description

Additional Hospital Information & Who We are Looking For:

Associate Veterinarian - Hybrid GP + Urgent Care | Brookfield, WI

• Interest In: A dynamic mix of general practice and urgent care medicine within an AAHA-accredited hospital. This opportunity is ideal for a veterinarian who enjoys the relationships and continuity of GP while also wanting the variety, pace, and clinical challenge that come with same-day and urgent cases. Your caseload may include preventative medicine, internal medicine, diagnostic workups, surgery, dentistry, senior care, acute illness and injury, stabilization, hospitalization, and more complex medical presentations.
• Open to New Graduates or Experienced Veterinarians: We're excited to meet both! A new graduate can build a strong clinical foundation while gaining exposure to both routine GP and urgent-care medicine with structured mentorship and support. An experienced veterinarian will have the autonomy to practice high-quality medicine, work through a diverse caseload, and continue growing their clinical interests in an environment that offers more variety than traditional GP alone.
• A Schedule Designed Around More Consecutive Time Off: This role includes longer clinical shifts and weekend coverage, including both Saturdays and Sundays, but the tradeoff is fewer days worked in a row and the opportunity for larger stretches of consecutive days off.

Rather than following a traditional five-day workweek, the schedule is designed to concentrate your clinical time into fewer workdays, creating more meaningful blocks of time away from the hospital for travel, family, hobbies, appointments, or simply having more uninterrupted time to recharge.

For the veterinarian who prefers "work hard while I'm here, then give me real time off", this can be a very appealing alternative to a traditional GP schedule.

• Hybrid GP + Urgent Care - The Best of Both Worlds: One day may include wellness visits, chronic disease management, and dentistry, while another brings same-day illness, lacerations, GI cases, injuries, or patients requiring stabilization and hospitalization. You'll have the ability to build long-term client relationships while also developing the diagnostic confidence and efficiency that comes from seeing a broader range of urgent presentations.

This is not overnight emergency medicine. Brookfield provides urgent and emergency evaluation during hospital hours and works with nearby 24-hour emergency and specialty hospitals when a patient requires a higher level or continuity of care beyond what can be provided in-house.

• New Graduate Mentorship: New graduates have access to our structured, one-year mentorship program, including a dedicated Clinical Mentor with intentional schedule overlap, regular mentor meetings, goal-setting, virtual learning opportunities, and coaching around client communication and professional development.

A hybrid environment can be an incredible place to grow because you're exposed to both routine medicine and cases that challenge you to think quickly and strengthen your diagnostic skills, but we also recognize that this needs to happen with the right support. Our goal is to help you progressively build confidence and independence, not expect you to manage everything alone on day one.

New graduates also have access to our 5-day Surgical Mentorship Program, offered year-round in a small-group setting where participants typically complete approximately 20-40 surgeries, as well as a 2-day Dental Wet Lab led by our veterinary dental specialist.

• Experienced Veterinarian Growth: Experienced doctors will enjoy clinical autonomy while still having access to continued professional development. In addition to generous CE support, you'll have access to our Clinical Tracks Program, offering complimentary RACE-approved CE facilitated by veterinary specialists within our network.

Have a special interest? Let's talk about how we can help make it a larger part of your everyday practice.

• Urgent Care & Hospitalization Capabilities: Brookfield Veterinary Wellness and Urgent Care provides emergency evaluation, stabilization, hospitalization, and urgent medical treatment during hospital hours. The hospital is equipped with modern diagnostics and medical technology to help doctors assess patients quickly and determine the appropriate level of care.

When a patient requires advanced or 24-hour emergency treatment beyond what can be provided in-house, the team coordinates referral to nearby emergency and specialty resources.

• Comprehensive GP Medicine: Alongside urgent care, Brookfield remains a full-service veterinary hospital offering wellness and preventative care, diagnostics, advanced medical care, and routine-to-advanced surgical procedures. That combination creates a caseload with enough consistency to build client relationships and enough variety to keep your clinical skills sharp.
• AAHA-Accredited Standards of Care: Brookfield Veterinary Wellness and Urgent Care is proud to be AAHA-accredited, reflecting the hospital's commitment to rigorous standards across areas including surgery, anesthesia, diagnostic imaging, emergency services, patient care, exam facilities, cleanliness, and client service.
• Supportive Technical Team: Work alongside a veterinary support team that helps doctors move efficiently through both scheduled appointments and more urgent cases. Strong technician utilization and teamwork are especially important in a hybrid GP/UC environment, allowing veterinarians to focus on diagnostics, treatment planning, procedures, and client communication.
• Collaborative Team Environment: We're looking for someone who enjoys teamwork, communication, and a little variety in their day. Hybrid medicine works best when everyone is willing to jump in, communicate clearly, and support one another-and we want a veterinarian who values that type of environment.
• Patient Mix: Primarily dogs and cats, with cases ranging from routine wellness and preventative care to advanced diagnostics, surgery, acute illness, injury, stabilization, hospitalization, and urgent same-day presentations.

Location: 350 Discovery Drive, Suite 600 Brookfield, WI 53045

The Schedule: This position will include a combination of weekday, Saturday, and Sunday shifts as Brookfield continues expanding access to weekend veterinary care.

The schedule is intentionally built around:

• Fewer days worked each week
• Longer shifts rather than five traditional workdays
• More consecutive days off
• Larger blocks of personal time for travel, family, and life outside of work
• A shared weekend schedule that supports expanded client access
• No overnight shifts

If you've ever thought, "I'd rather work a few longer days and then actually have several days off," this may be exactly the type of veterinary schedule you've been looking for.

Whether you're a new graduate looking for a supportive environment where you can build confidence across both GP and urgent medicine, or an experienced veterinarian who wants more variety and a schedule that creates real stretches of time away from work, we'd love to connect.

This is a great fit for someone who likes being busy when they're at the hospital, but also values having multiple days in a row to truly unplug.

For confidential consideration, please send your resume to: Katie Shaffer katie.shaffer@mvetpartners.com All applications and conversations will be handled with the utmost discretion, professionalism, and confidentiality.

Why Brookfield / Greater Milwaukee, WI?

Located just west of Milwaukee, Brookfield gives you easy access to the entire Milwaukee metro while offering the convenience and space of one of the area's most established suburban communities.

Outside of work, you're close to Milwaukee's restaurants and breweries, Lake Michigan, professional sports, concerts, festivals, shopping, parks, trails, and countless weekend activities throughout southeastern Wisconsin.

And with a schedule built around larger blocks of consecutive time off, you'll actually have the time to enjoy it. Whether that means traveling, spending a few days at the lake, heading north for a long weekend, exploring Milwaukee, or simply having multiple days at home without thinking about work, the schedule provides something that can be hard to find in veterinary medicine: usable time off between shifts, not just scattered single days.

For veterinarians who enjoy a faster-paced, varied clinical environment but still want meaningful time away from the hospital, Brookfield offers a compelling combination of GP relationships, urgent-care medicine, Greater Milwaukee living, and a schedule designed differently from the traditional five-day workweek.

What Your Day-to-Day Looks Like

• Build Lasting Relationships: Connect with clients and their pets, becoming their trusted partner in a pet's lifelong health.
• Practice Your Best Medicine: From diagnosis to treatment, you'll lead patient care with the freedom to uphold the highest standards.
• Educate and Empower: Clearly communicate findings and treatment plans, empowering clients to make informed decisions.
• Collaborate and Grow: Work alongside a supportive paraprofessional team, contributing to a positive hospital culture.

Who We're Looking For

• Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) degree.
• A valid state license and in good standing to practice.
• A collaborative spirit and a dedication to practicing the highest standard of medicine.
• Excellent communication skills with a positive, friendly attitude.
