Emergency Animal Hospital of Ellicott City (ECEAH) is seeking a full time or part time emergency veterinarian to join our team. ECEAH is one of the oldest emergency animal hospitals in the community.

S/he will want to be an integral part of our practice as we continue growing and evolving as a practice and a veterinarian team. Come join us! 

Why ECEAH?

At Emergency Animal Hospital of Ellicott City, one of the region's most established emergency practices, the thing our team talks about most isn't the equipment or the caseload - it's the people. With 7 full-time veterinarians, ~30 support staff, and one of the lowest turnover rates you'll find in emergency medicine, we've built something genuinely rare: a team that likes coming to work.

Our doctors and technicians collaborate closely (4:1 tech-to-doctor ratio), support each other through complex cases, and share a commitment to doing right by every patient. New graduates receive real mentorship. Experienced clinicians find intellectual challenge and professional respect.

The Medicine

We handle a diverse caseload of small animals and exotics with a comprehensive in-house setup: digital radiology, in-house lab, ICU, Snyder ICU, isolation ward, diagnostic ultrasound,  and a full surgery suite, complete with a Force Triad vessel sealer and electrocautery unit. You'll have the tools to practice the medicine you were trained for.

Their up front focus on honesty and improving over time keeps surprising me each time they demonstrate it. Veterinary medicine is not always the prettiest, easiest, happiest, or most satisfying line of work as we all know, but I can't imagine doing it for any other group. VetEvolve has been able to retain a small feel over time, as it grows, which is huge for me.” - VetEvolve network DVM.
