• Interest In – Comprehensive GP with Advanced Surgical Opportunities: Raytown-Gregory Animal Health Center is looking to add another veterinarian to our established, AAHA-accredited, multi-doctor small-animal hospital in Raytown, MO.

Whether you're a new graduate looking to build a strong clinical foundation or an experienced veterinarian interested in expanding your skills, Raytown-Gregory offers an exceptional environment to continue growing.

Great Mentorship. Advanced Medicine. Room to Become the Veterinarian You Want to Be.

• A Mentorship Environment That Goes Beyond the Basics: One of Raytown-Gregory's greatest strengths is its collaborative doctor team and hands-on, in-house mentorship opportunities.

Our experienced veterinarians enjoy teaching and supporting one another, particularly in areas such as dentistry, advanced soft-tissue surgery, and orthopedic procedures.

For a veterinarian who wants to develop beyond routine GP, this is an opportunity to learn alongside doctors already practicing advanced medicine while gradually building your own skills and confidence.

You don't need to know how to do everything today. We want to help you become the veterinarian you're excited to be tomorrow.

Raytown-Gregory offers in-house surgical mentorship in dentistry, advanced soft-tissue procedures, and select orthopedic surgeries, creating opportunities for veterinarians interested in expanding their procedural capabilities.

We're especially excited to connect with doctors who have an interest in orthopedic surgery, including TPLO, whether you're already gaining experience in these procedures or hope to pursue them as your career develops.

These are opportunities for growth, not prerequisites for joining our team.

• Open to New Graduates or Experienced Veterinarians: New graduates will benefit from our structured, one-year New Graduate Mentorship Program, including a dedicated Clinical Mentor, intentional schedule overlap, regular mentor meetings, goal-setting, virtual rounds, and professional development.

You'll also have access to our 5-day Surgical Mentorship Program, where participants typically complete approximately 20–40 surgeries, along with a 2-day Dental Wet Lab led by a veterinary dental specialist.

Experienced veterinarians will enjoy clinical autonomy while continuing to develop their interests through collaboration, in-house mentorship, and our Clinical Tracks Program, offering complimentary RACE-approved CE facilitated by veterinary specialists within our network.

• A Collaborative Team with a Growth Mindset: Join a multi-doctor practice that genuinely values teamwork, open communication, and continued learning.

We encourage our doctors to share ideas, contribute to clinical discussions, and have a voice in how medicine is practiced. Our goal is to create an environment where everyone can continue learning, developing their strengths, and reaching their full potential.

• Facility & Clinical Capabilities: Our full-service, AAHA-accredited hospital is equipped to support both everyday GP and more advanced medicine, featuring:

• CO₂ surgical laser supporting a variety of procedures.
• In-house ultrasound, with echocardiology services available.
• New radiology equipment supporting both dental imaging and in-house diagnostic radiographs.
• Advanced soft-tissue and orthopedic surgical capabilities, along with comprehensive dentistry.
• In-house diagnostics to support thorough case workups and treatment planning.

Our veterinarians also have access to board-certified specialists within our network for collaboration on more complex cases.

• Supportive Team & Patient Mix: Practice alongside an experienced veterinary team that values compassionate care, collaboration, and strong client relationships. Enjoy a comprehensive dog and cat caseload ranging from preventative medicine and dentistry to internal medicine, diagnostics, surgery, and more involved cases.
