Careers at East End Animal Surgery & Urgent Care
Veterinary medicine as it should be.
East End was built on a simple belief:
Veterinary medicine should be bold, compassionate, evidence-driven, and human.
We do not default to “nothing can be done.”
We do not practise by habit or convenience.
We think. We question. We try.
This is a practice built from the ground up — independent, not corporate, and not dictated by scripts. We are proud of that.
If you believe accessible care and high-quality care are not opposites, you may feel at home here.
How We Practice
We are a high-trust urgent care team.
That means:
- Clear communication with clients
- Practical, spectrum-of-care medicine
- Evidence used as a tool — not as a shield
- Options offered thoughtfully
- Decisions owned confidently
Euthanasia can be appropriate — but never automatic.
We ask questions. We explore solutions. We use science and experience to move cases forward.
When we don’t know, we say so.
Then we work through it together.
What It’s Like To Work Here
We are fast-paced, collaborative, and honest.
You will see:
- Wounds and trauma
- Blocked cats
- Parvo
- Acute GI cases
- High surgical volume
You’ll work with capable technicians who are trusted and empowered.
We mentor. We challenge each other. We do not tolerate toxicity.
In a profession facing burnout and disillusionment, we choose to build something steadier.
We work hard — but we work with purpose.
