Apply for an Associate Veterinarian Position in Albuquerque as a Recent Graduate

Petroglyph Animal Hospital is looking to hire Associate Veterinarians in Albuquerque, NM who are recent graduates.

Challenge yourself after you graduate veterinary school. Don’t want to stand behind an intern or resident and watch while they gain valuable skills and you wonder when your turn will come to put your skills to work? At Petroglyph Animal Hospital you’ll practice real-world veterinary medicine through hands-on training, as well as the mentorship and comradery of your peers. If you want your workday to be fulfilling and invigorating, our practices are for you. 

We are a two facility, small and exotic animal practice. Petroglyph Animal Hospital has been providing exceptional veterinary care to Albuquerque’s families for over 25 years.  Our hospitals offer a wide range of animal services including general, orthopedic and laparoscopic surgery, internal medicine, pain control, endoscopy, comprehensive in-house laboratory, radiography, HD CT, and dentistry. We offer 24-hour nursing care for hospitalized patients. Both facilities are accredited by the American Animal Hospital Association.  Our hours have been modified to accommodate our staff’s work-life balance. Associates have the opportunity to pursue individual interests so, in addition to small animal medicine, you may focus on exotic animals, dentistry, ABVP board certification, or wherever your passion lies.

We strive to provide quality veterinary medicine and surgery to all clients and their pets in a timely, friendly, and professional manner. We treat all animals as valued members of our families and of our community. We have experienced, long-term support staff on the premises 24 hours a day and have been under the same ownership since our inception in 1995. 

We are seeking motivated Associates who are interested in a flexible schedule to join our exceptional practice and dedicated, nine doctor team, for 1-4 shifts a week depending on your work-life balance needs. We are looking for an Associate who has a collaborative spirit and who wants to develop excellent customer service skills. We encourage comradery, mentorship, and an environment for everyone to learn and work at their own pace.

New associates are teamed with seasoned associates, providing an outstanding environment for enhancing and developing new skills.
