Job DescriptionDescription: The Veterinary Emergency Hospital Midlothian (VEHM) is a small, busy, privately owned, 24/7 animal emergency hospital serving the greater Midlothian community with empathetic, progressive care. As part of our expansion, we've opened a second location—Veterinary Emergency Hospital Arlington Urgent Care (VEHA). Together, VEHA and VEHM function as one cohesive organization, united in our commitment to providing compassionate, high-quality veterinary care across both locations. VEHM remains our primary hospital and the core of our company. We take pride in delivering exceptional medicine, exemplary patient care, and compassionate client service — around the clock.
