Job Description
Applicants must have a DVM (or equivalent) and be licensed or eligible for licensure to practice in the Province of Ontario. The applicant must be a Diplomate of the American (ACVS) or European (ECVS) College of Veterinary Surgeons. Applications may also be considered from candidates who have completed an ACVS/ECVS-approved residency training program and are eligible for examination by the ACVS or ECVS. A graduate research degree and experience in research and teaching are highly desirable. The ideal candidate should have strong skills in the clinical practice of small animal surgery in a team-based environment and outstanding teaching and communication skills. The successful candidate will work with five other board-certified surgeons and five small animal surgical residents covering orthopedic and soft tissue surgery. Much of your effort will be dedicated to teaching clinical surgery to DVM students and small animal surgical residents, including managing small animal patients and consultation in the Ontario Veterinary College-Health Sciences Centre (OVC-HSC). Orthopedic surgery experience will be regarded favourably, and the flexibility to support the soft tissue surgery service, when required, is considered an asset.
