Job Description
Do you thrive when the pressure is on and the cases are anything but routine? At Airport Animal Emergi-Center (AAEC), you'll find your stride in a fast-paced, growth-oriented environment where you're supported, challenged, and empowered to do your best work. If you want a team that has your back through every critical moment, we'd love to meet you.
*Where You’ll Work *
You'll practice at Greater Indianapolis' dedicated emergency hospital. Here, you cover the moments general practice hours can't: the late-night emergencies, the weekend scares, the cases that can't wait for regular hours.
Our culture is built on teamwork, compassion, and mutual respect. You'll join a workplace where you feel valued and connected, and where leadership is committed to your well-being, a healthy work-life balance, and your continued growth. It's a place people enjoy coming to, shift after shift.
*Our Hospital *
* Dedicated emergency and urgent care for dogs and cats, occasional pocket pets
* Best in class ratio of experienced support team to DVM, allowing you to focus on patient care
* 5 exam rooms built for efficient, high-acuity care
* Latest technology including IDEXX in-house labs, AI scribe services, ultrasound, digital radiography, laser therapy
* Hours: open continuously Thursday at 6pm through Tuesday at 8am; Tuesday and Wednesday, 6:00pm to 8:00am
*Grow Your Skills, Your Way *
* Individualized mentorship programs
* Annual CE allowance, including extra paid time off to use it plus dues and license fees
* Specialized CE in emergency and critical care medicine
* 25+ veterinarians collaborating across multiple hospitals
*What We Offer You *
* Area’s most competitive compensation with salary uncapped: our full-time doctors on average make $360K+ based on salary and performance
* Sign-on bonus, student loan assistance, and/or relocation assistance that is customized for you
* 401(k) with a generous company match
* Medical, dental, and vision insurance
* Competitive PTO package
* Flexible schedules available - Full-Time, Part Time, or Relief
* Employee discount
*Why You’ll Love Indianapolis*
There's so much to do in Indianapolis, and with a cost of living about 14.3% below the national average, your paycheck goes further here than in most major metros. You'll find a big-city food and museum scene, parks and green spaces, and pro sports year-round (Fever, Pacers, and Colts). Beyond the city, there's the Indy 500, the NCAA Final Four, and Big Ten tournaments. It's just as good a place to settle in as it is to explore, with surrounding suburbs known for their great schools, welcoming neighborhoods, and close-knit communities.
*What sets AAEC apart: *
When you join Airport Animal Emergi-Center, you step into an ER built to have your back — the right people, the freedom to practice your way, and the tools to move fast when it counts.
* Supportive Team. You're backed by 3-4 trained veterinary technicians and assistants, plus an experienced management team who've worked the floor.
* Clinical Autonomy. We operate with a hands-off philosophy. Doctors keep the final say in how they practice medicine, with no standardized script to follow.
* Connected Care. AAEC is the emergency hospital in a family of 12 locations. Shared medical records across all 11 general practice clinics and our emergency hospital provides seamless, high-quality, consistent care for clients wherever they visit and whenever it’s needed.
* Purpose-Built for Emergency Care. Our hospital is set up for the pace of ER medicine, with an in-house lab and the tools to move quickly from triage to treatment.
*Ready to Join Us?*
If you're looking for emergency medicine with real support, real autonomy, and real opportunities to grow, we'd love to hear from you. Apply today to start the conversation.
