Veterinary Surgeon

Cincinnati, Ohio

Veterinary Surgeon
Kyle Veterinary Hospital is looking for a full-time or part-time Veterinary Surgeon to join our warm, collaborative team in the heart of Cincinnati, OH. If you’re a skilled surgeon who loves the precision, challenge, and artistry of veterinary surgery, this is your chance to practice your craft in a supportive, well-equipped environment that truly feels like home.

At Kyle Veterinary Hospital, we believe work should feel rewarding—not routine. Our days are filled with wagging tails, purring patients, and a team that lifts each other up. We celebrate small victories, share big laughs, and create a workplace where compassion and collaboration go hand in paw.

What to Expect
Salary: $130,000 - $150,000 base plus production (or production-only if preferred — we’re flexible to fit your ideal compensation model)
Sign-on Bonus : $10,000
Location: 11734 Conrey Road, Cincinnati, OH 45249
Hours of operation:

  • Monday - Friday: 7:00 AM - 6:30 PM
  • Saturday: 8:00 AM - 1:00 PM
  • Sunday: Closed (because even superheroes need rest!)

As you join our mission to serve our patients and clients with the highest quality care, expect to be supported in your work and personal life with

  • A surgery-focused schedule that values your time: This position is all about what you love—surgery. No general wellness appointments, no on-call duties, and no walk-ins. Whether full-time or part-time, you’ll enjoy a consistent schedule designed to give you the time and tools to perform at your best.
  • A healthy tech-to-doctor ratio. You’ll work alongside experienced technicians, assistants, and recovery staff who are skilled in anesthesia, patient monitoring, and post-op care. From prepping to recovery, they’ll have your back every step of the way.
  • All the benefits you deserve - health, dental, vision, retirement - plus: a competitive salary with high earning potential, relocation assistance, extra paid time for continuing education, and an annual CE allowance. We also cover state licensing costs, DEA, AVMA PLIT, and membership fees (AVMA, OSVMA, VIN, etc.)
  • Paid time off. Catch your breath with generous PTO and paid CE days every year. Take the time you need to recharge, because even the best surgeons need to paws and recharge.
  • Partnership opportunities through Veterinary Practice Partners (VPP), where more than 235 partners co-own practices across 168 locations. VPP offers unmatched support in operations, marketing, and finance, allowing you to focus on your passion for veterinary medicine (and maybe a few belly rubs along the way).

Requirements:

  • Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) or VMD degree from an accredited institution.
  • Valid veterinary license in the state of Ohio
  • 2+ years' experience performing small animal surgeries (spays/neuters, soft tissue, and mass removals required; orthopedics a plus)

About Kyle Veterinary Hospital
Located in northeast Cincinnati—just minutes from Montgomery and Blue Ash—we have proudly served the community’s pets and families since 1995. Our modern, fully equipped facility is home to a compassionate, experienced team that’s ready to welcome a new veterinarian to our growing pack. We’re in a vibrant community full of great restaurants, entertainment, and outdoor adventures. The area offers affordable living, excellent schools, and a friendly small-town vibe with big-city perks.

In 2023, we partnered with Veterinary Practice Partners (VPP)—combining our long-standing community roots with the resources and stability of a national network. This partnership means we can focus more on what we love: practicing medicine and caring for our clients.

    • Four spacious exam rooms with EMR access (Avimark + ScribbleVet AI) for pre-surgical consults
    • A supportive team of licensed techs and skilled assistants who love surgery as much as you do

Our clinic is clean, efficient, and always evolving—with plans for continued equipment upgrades and opportunities for you to guide surgical improvements as our surgical program expands.

Mentorship, Growth & Future Opportunities
