• Develop lasting relationships with referring veterinarians throughout the Inland Empire
• Collaborate closely with an experienced emergency medicine team
• Help shape clinical protocols and the future direction of specialty services

• 24/7 Emergency and Critical Care

• Collaboration with specialists across the Ethos network
• Leadership and career development opportunities
• Continuing education and professional growth resources

• A physician-centered culture built on collaboration, innovation, and clinical excellence

What We're Looking For

• DACVIM (Small Animal Internal Medicine) or residency-trained and board-eligible
• Passion for collaborative specialty medicine
• Interest in developing and growing a referral-based Internal Medicine service
• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
• Commitment to delivering exceptional patient and client care

Why the Inland Empire?

The Inland Empire offers an outstanding quality of life with a lower cost of living than many coastal Southern California communities while keeping you within easy driving distance of Los Angeles, Orange County, Palm Springs, Big Bear, and Southern California's beaches.

Whether you enjoy hiking, skiing, mountain biking, or weekend trips to the coast, you'll have access to everything Southern California has to offer-without sacrificing space, affordability, or opportunity.

Benefits

We believe outstanding specialists deserve exceptional support. We offer:

• Competitive compensation with production opportunities (base salary ranging from $200,000-$250,000)
• Sign-on bonus and relocation assistance
• Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance
• 401(k) with company match
• Generous CE allowance and paid CE
• Professional dues and licensing reimbursement
• Leadership development and mentorship opportunities
• A collaborative team committed to your long-term success

Help Us Expand Specialty Care in the Inland Empire
