**Urgent Care Veterinarian – North Jones Animal Hospital** Laurel, Mississippi

North Jones Animal Hospital is entering an exciting new chapter, and we’re looking for a passionate and driven veterinarian to help lead the transformation. Our established general practice is being remodeled and reimagined into a modern, high-quality urgent care clinic, and we’re seeking a veterinarian who thrives in a fast-paced, case-diverse environment and wants to be part of building something special from the ground up.

- Help foster a positive, team-oriented environment during this exciting transition

**What We Offer**

- Competitive salary with production-based incentives
- Flexible scheduling designed to support work-life balance

- Supportive leadership and a collaborative team culture
- Opportunity to influence the design and growth of a newly remodeled urgent care facility

- Easy access to outdoor recreation including parks, lakes, and nearby forests
- A strong sense of community where relationships matter—both with clients and colleagues
