Southpaw Veterinary Clinic & Emergency Care is a fast-paced veterinary clinic serving the West Omaha community. Our current caseload consists of approximately 30% primary care and 70% urgent care. We are currently seeking an Overnight Emergency Associate Veterinarian to manage walk-in and overflow emergency cases.
This position will begin with daytime training and transition to an overnight schedule. This expansion of our veterinary team is part of our preparation for a dedicated emergency service in our new hospital, expected to open next winter.
Southpaw was founded with a commitment to providing high-quality, inclusive, compassionate, and accessible veterinary care. We believe every pet deserves excellent care and every client deserves to feel informed, supported, and involved in the process. Our goal is to provide affordable veterinary services to the community we serve.
Our clinic welcomes a unique mix of traditional and non-traditional patients, including dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, small mammals, and invertebrates. We also provide farm and house-call opportunities for certain non-traditional species, including large hoofstock, pot-bellied pigs, large tortoises, kangaroos, and others. Additional training in exotic and non-traditional patient care will be provided by Dr. Trent Shrader.
Southpaw is a 24-hour urgent care facility with a collaborative doctor team. Veterinarians are generally expected to work only two holiday shifts per year. Recognized holidays include New Year's Eve, New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Thanksgiving, Labor Day, Christmas Eve, and Christmas Day.
