Prospering Vets / New Veterinarians!
Shadow, Learn, and Shine: Our roadmap to becoming part of the Friendly Vet team. The onboarding plan at Friendly Vet Animal Hospital offers a structured, supportive start for new veterinarians, combining hands-on training with steadily increasing independence. In the first week, you’ll shadow experienced doctors with a variety of practice styles, learn hospital systems, and begin applying problem-solving skills in real-world cases. During the first two months, appointments are scheduled for one hour to allow ample time for learning and independent case management, transitioning to 40-minute appointments in the third month and 30-minute appointments thereafter. Surgical experience begins with routine spay/neuter procedures and gradually expands to more complex surgeries under the mentorship of Dr. Grover and the team.
You’ll also have opportunities for additional learning, such as dental wet labs with a local specialist and ultrasound training courses. Weekly check-ins and monthly lunch meetings ensure ongoing feedback, coaching, and professional growth. At Friendly Vet, you’ll not only build your skills and confidence but also join a welcoming, family-owned practice where your ideas are valued, your work makes a real impact, and your growth is truly supported.
