Cobb Veterinary Emergency and Referral Center (CEVC) is seeking applications for staff emergency and critical care veterinarians to care for canine, feline, avian, reptilian, and other exotic animal species. Our company prefers internship-trained individuals due to the advanced experience and training acquired through a rigorous internship environment. At our primary clinic, we are a 24/7 emergency, secondary and tertiary critical care facility located in the northwest metro area of Atlanta, GA. We have a second facility, Cherokee Emergency Veterinary Clinic (CHEVC), which is currently a night and weekend emergency clinic; however, we are in the process of building a replacement clinic, which will offer all the services as CEVC. Our combined caseload exceeds 13,000 cases per year.

We utilize state-of-the art medical equipment and medications in conjunction with a well-trained staff to provide progressive, evidence-based medicine to an affluent clientele. EKG telemetry, defibrillator, ventilator, doppler/Dynamap blood pressure and CVP monitoring devices, electrocautery, I-131, I-stat analyzers, PT/PTT SCA2000 units, and external thermal support units are just a few items in our diagnostic and therapeutic arsenal used to provide the best critical care possible to our patients. We are the largest non-university emergency/referral clinic in the southeastern United States with a 15,000 square foot main facility. We employ 11 full time emergency/critical care doctors of which > 85% are internship-trained, and we are associated with eight specialty service veterinarians that are all located in our main building. Specialty services include surgery, internal medicine, ophthalmology, and dermatology.

This is an excellent environment to gain additional skills and knowledge for those in pursuit of a residency, since time can be spent with the specialists during time off from the emergency service. We are looking for individuals that are versed at handling the high volume, fast-paced environment of a team-based approach to caring for our patients. I am confident that our cases will challenge even the best of veterinary professionals. A competitive salary, benefits, 401K-retirement plan, vacation time, and a moving expense allotment are all part of the introductory package for compatible candidates.
