Employment

Are you a new or second year veterinarian looking for a place to land where fun, leadership, experience, and mentorship are all taken seriously? SVEC may be the place for you!

We have a team of servant leaders that will give you the support and encouragement you need to grow personally and professionally. Our team is truly a family, that genuinely cares for one another.

We work like normal people. We enjoy what we do, and sometimes we need to put in more than the average day into it. We love our clients, and we love their horses. Afterall, that’s probably why we chose equine medicine in the first place, right?

We like to pursue our passions here at SVEC. We have four different teams you may find yourself on. Whether it’s the Repro Team, the Farm Service Team, the Surgery Team, or the Sports Medicine Team you are sure to find one that strikes your fancy. With our teams we work on marketing and logistics. Each team has a weekly meeting where we brainstorm and research the best ideas. Each and every person at SVEC is on a team!

We do our best to stay connected and informed through daily morning meetings, biweekly team reporting meetings, and quarterly business meetings that we all participate in. Everyone, even our high school students, know how our business operates. We know we can affect the growth of our clinic and what a vital role each of us plays.

Aside from our awesome staff, we are blessed with a pretty nice facility to work out of. Ever expanding and always inviting. We are definitely not perfect, but every day we work on trying to be the best we can be.

Staying true to our growth mindset, we have another business we call GameTime Sports Medicine. GameTime is proud to be the onsite veterinarian for many large horse shows throughout the United States. The largest being the All American Quarter Horse Congress. We are proud to be the Official Veterinarian at the Congress and have been for the last 8 years!

Our Sports Medicine Team would love to have someone who is obviously, interested in sports medicine. We need someone who’s ambition in life is to diagnose and treat world class horses on the road or at home. One of our own started as an extern, then signed on as an intern, became a fellow, and now has a very successful career here at SVEC. And we are very proud of her!

If sports medicine isn’t really your thing, that’s ok, is not the limiter. You may want to be an all arounder and we can help you get there too. You can depend on everyone here at SVEC for help, and you would have a specific vet mentor to learn from and lean on.

Our clinic is in Mid-Michigan. You are no more than minutes away from water. Michigan is beautiful in the summer with tons of things to do and see. We have a festival for everything you can think of. The Walleye Festival is in our back yard, the Corn Festival is down the road, and there are farmers markets in every small town. Michigan is also beautiful in the winter with plenty of places to ski and snowmobile. We do have four seasons, sometimes all in the same day! My favorite place to vacation in the winter and summer is the Upper Peninsula. Locally we have farm fields everywhere. If you like the big city life, Detroit, Grand Rapids, and Ann Arbor are not far away.

If you are interested and would like to know more, please give us a call, or shoot me an email at Cheryl@SaginawValleyEquine.com. We would love to have someone on our team who cares about the people they work with and the people they work for.

About the Great Lakes Bay Region

Saginaw Valley Equine Clinic is located in the heart of the Great Lakes Bay Region (Midland, Bay City, Saginaw) and is a great place to live and raise a family. The abundance of rivers leading to the Saginaw Bay makes this region rich in natural beauty and recreation. Only Florida has more pleasure boats than Michigan.
Arts, Entertainment and Recreation are vibrantly alive in the Great Lakes Bay Region. The historic stages of the Temple Theatre in downtown Saginaw and the Midland Center For the Arts located at Dow Gardens are both just minutes away. The Dow Event Center, located 15 minutes from the clinic, hosts some fantastic musical, comedy and entertainers. The brand new Dow Diamond baseball park, home of the minor league LA Dodger‘s pro baseball affiliate team the Great Lakes loons, is also a 15-minute drive from the clinic.
Enjoy Camping, Hunting and Fishing throughout all of Michigan’s world famous game and fishing seasons. The Saginaw River and Saginaw Bay are full of walleye, bass, salmon, perch and northern pike or fish local rivers and streams for trout. Some of the best Whitetail Deer hunting is found around the clinic and Great Lakes Bay Region.
Beautiful Rail Trails, Hiking and Running Paths travel through areas where kids can play, animals can be seen and new adventures await. Winter Sports are well represented here with snowmobiling, ice fishing, skating, and skiing at the top of the list.
If City Lights beckon you, then this is the perfect location. Enjoy our relaxed, small-town lifestyle during the week. Then, on Friday night, drive less than two hours to spend exciting weekends in eclectic Ann Arbor, artsy Traverse City, and urban Detroit. Even Chicago is close enough to visit on long weekends.
Nearby Michigan Wonders abound. The famous Mackinaw Bridge and Mackinaw Island are an easy weekend trip. The Leelanau wine country with the National Sleeping Bears Dunes offers scenic vistas found only in Michigan.
