Veterinarian | Decatur, AL

Overview

A Team That Stays. A Bonus Up to $125K. A Place to Call Home.

Associate Veterinarian | Berry Animal Clinic | Decatur, AL

A six-figure salary plus production, a bonus package valued up to $125,000, and a family-like team where people actually stick around - 4+ years average tenure. If you want great medicine, real support, and a workplace you look forward to, this is the role.

Berry Animal Clinic, a CareVet partner, is looking for an experienced veterinarian to join our incredible three-doctor team in Decatur, Alabama - with outstanding clinical support and genuine work-life balance.

Why This Role Stands Out

• A team that stays - members average 4+ years of tenure
• A family-like culture where collaboration, laughter, and excellent medicine go hand in hand
• A well-equipped hospital and a consistent, rewarding caseload
• Real work-life balance

But what truly sets us apart is our people. With team members averaging four-plus years of tenure, we've built a supportive, family-like culture where collaboration, laughter, and excellent medicine go hand in hand.
