Description
Vet-Owned. People-First.
AcutePet Urgent Care is redefining how urgent veterinary care is delivered.
Since opening in July 2024, our West Chester team has quickly become a trusted resource for pet families and local veterinarians. That growth is driven by a strong clinical culture and a real need for thoughtful, accessible urgent care. As demand continues to build, we’re expanding and looking for veterinarians who want to practice high-quality medicine in a model designed for both clinical excellence and personal sustainability.
We deliver emergency-level care in an urgent care setting. That means meaningful cases, strong diagnostics, and real impact - without overnights or the intensity of traditional 24/7 ER schedules.
This role may be a strong fit for:
- Emergency veterinarians seeking a shift from overnight or high-acuity ER
- Experienced general practitioners ready to expand their scope
- Early-career DVMs interested in urgent care with structured mentorship
- Doctors who value autonomy alongside collaborative support
