Veterinarian

Salary: DOE
This is an opportunity to make a commitment to a community in exchange for a connection to humankind and a sense of fulfillment and belonging. Your clients will become your friends and their children your childrens classmates. You will teach them what you can and you will learn from them and their pets. These are not trivial things. I vow to be the best teacher I can be and try to provide a few insights into veterinary medicine as well.
Banks is a small rural town about 25 miles west of Portland. This practice offers really the only mixed animal practice in the west hills. There are several small dairies and assorted beef operations, sheep goats, camelids and even a few swine producers. Obviously there is a great deal of variety and I never get bored or burned out.
Equipment includes Idexx blood analyzer, digital x-ray system, Sevo anesthetic machine, pulse-ox(plus) equip, ultrasound dental unit, computer records and diagnostic ultrasound as soon as we hire an associate. We provide an embryo transfer and breeding soundness evaluation service so have all the equipment necessary for these as well. Staff is friendly, helpful and accommodating. I'm on call 24-7 though a small animal emergency hospital serves the area and of course there are all variety of specialists close by to learn from or refer difficult problems to. There is virtually no aspect of the practice that could not be further developed depending on individual expertise or interest.
In many ways this is an ideal area to live and raise a family: Excellent schools, close to the ocean and the mountains, not too far from Portland to enjoy all the great restaurants and entertainment options.
