Evergreen Animal Hospital

1710 NE 78th Street, Vancouver, WA 98665

Hiring: Veterinarian (DVM/VDM) - Full-Time or Part-Time

EAH is a privately-owned currently single-doctor practice in Vancouver, Washington. As of September 2025, we are also under new ownership and looking to grow in all the right ways! While we have retained most of our fantastic and loyal clients of the past, we’ve also released the flood-gates and begun accepting new clients for the first time in years. We have been blessed to be able to maintain a very busy schedule and, as a result, we need to grow our team!

We are seeking a dedicated, compassionate, and professional Veterinarian to join the EAH family. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in animal care and veterinary medicine, with the ability to provide high-quality, diagnostic-driven, modern medical services to both canines and felines. While we are currently a Small Animal General Practice, we would welcome your experience with Exotics if that interests you. If it does not, we won’t hold it against you. We don’t mind remaining focused on small animals.

The new owners have invested heavily in modernizing their hospital, and will continue to do so in order to provide the level of care our patients deserve!
