Job Description

\n

If you’ve been looking for an opportunity where you can use your full skillset, see a variety of cases, and make a real impact, this is it.

\n


\n

Payson Pet Care has been a trusted part of this community for over 20 years, and with the nearest ER over an hour away, our team plays an important role in caring for both routine and more urgent cases.  You’ll have the opportunity to practice a blend of GP and urgent care-style medicine, with the flexibility to shape the role around your strengths.

\n


\n
The Lifestyle (and Why People Stay)\n

    • \n
  • Easy access to hiking, lakes, and outdoor recreation
    • \n
  • A close-knit, welcoming community
    • \n
  • Less traffic, less pressure — more balance
    • \n
\n

And importantly — no after-hours and no holidays.

\n


\n

This is a great fit for someone who wants to enjoy their work and their life outside of it.

\n
