AREYOU READY TO FULFILL YOUR DREAM OF LIVING, WORKING AND PLAYING IN THE COLORADO MOUNTAINS???
Rare opportunity has become available at a rural small animal/exotics veterinary hospital located in the mountains west of Denver. We are at 1.5 miles above sea level (8500 foot elevation) in beautiful Park County, seemingly in the middle of nowhere; yet within an easy 35-minute drive down a major highway to the flatlands of the greater Denver Metro and outlying suburban areas. Four-season recreational opportunities abound within minutes of our location.
We are a privately owned, long-established practice, with over 46 years of service to a broad swath of mountain communities located along the U.S. Highway 285 corridor in Jefferson and Park counties. We have a long-standing reputation for providing compassionate, empathetic and high-quality veterinary services to our community. We practice good old-fashioned hands on veterinary medicine with face-to-face communication with our clients. We take the time during our appointments to cultivate long-term relationships with our clients and they become part of our practice family. The communities we serve are near wilderness areas so we see an eclectic caseload ranging from routine wellness care to attacks from bears and mountain lions. Our clients come to us from diverse geographical and economic backgrounds so we tailor our treatment plans to accommodate all of our clients’ expectations and budgets. Our clients absolutely love and appreciate us.
We are a full service medical, dental and surgical facility. While our current hospital is modest in size and has a family mountain rustic atmosphere, we are fully equipped with all the latest technology such as: In-house lab, digital whole body x-ray, high speed dental station and digital dental x-ray, Class IV therapeutic laser, and a complete in-house pharmacy. We utilize the services of a Board Certified Radiologist who does in-house ultrasounds and reviews radiographs as needed. We also utilize the services of a highly regarded and experienced traveling Orthopedic Veterinary Surgeon for our orthopedic surgeries. We work up our cases as much as possible. However, our proximity to Denver allows our clients easy access to all the numerous Referral Hospitals located in the flatlands when we do need to refer to a specialist. A highly committed and excellent front and back-end staff supports our DVMs.
We are looking for a more seasoned Veterinarian who enjoys working up cases and performing surgeries but we are able to offer strong mentorship and collaboration to someone with less experience. Our current staff of veterinarians has over 108 combined years of experience in small animal, exotic, emergency, laser, acupuncture & massage therapy.
The current opening is for a full-time DVM but could also be set up for two part-time DVMs. The full-time schedule requires working 4 weekdays each week and an every other ½ day Saturday AM. We schedule 2 DVMs to work on Saturdays and always have 2 DVMs working during the week. Many of our clients live in these mountain communities & they do make the daily commute to work in the Denver area, so we are open late 2 evenings each week and Saturday AM to accommodate their schedules. We do not see after-hours emergencies; they are referred to the many excellent facilities located on the flatlands. Currently, work/life balance is on everyone’s mind and this schedule is flexible and could be shared by 2 or more DVMs. Interest & experience in exotics is a plus.
Lone Rock Veterinary Hospital is a rural privately owned full service medical, dental and surgical small animal and exotics practice. We are located in the mountains west of Denver, just past Pine Junction, in beautiful Park County. Lone Rock was first started in 1977 as a mixed ambulatory practice and became a small animal/exotic onsite clinic with equine and large animal ambulatory capabilities in the early 1980's. The current owner started working as an Associate DVM for the small animal and exotic practice in 1988 and became the sole owner in late 2001. At that time the equine/large animal ambulatory was continued under new ownership and a new name in another community location. The ambulatory practice was phased out a few years later.
