Veterinary Referral and Emergency Center of Westbury, one of the most established and recognizable specialty practices on Long Island, New York—and definitely the largest in Nassau County—is seeking a board certified or board-eligible Dermatologist to join our 24-hour emergency/critical care and specialty referral practice.

Check out our hospital's video here: https://vimeo.com/569934798/9784f9280f.

VREC was originally established in 2003 in the current 12,000 sq. foot facility. During the past 11 years it has fostered an excellent relationship with referring veterinarians and is well known as the multi-service, 24-hour specialty practice of choice. At the time of its founding it was one of the largest and most forward-thinking specialty hospitals in the country. To maintain that reputation as a leader in the field, the facility will shortly be going through a massive renovation of 75% of the existing structure, cementing its reputation in the community as a state-of-the-art specialty practice. 

Although we are proud of our equipment (4 slice CT, full endoscopic capabilities, minimally invasive surgical equipment, the only linear accelerator on Long Island, ultrasound, DR, RT, IH lab a hyperbaric chamber, underwater treadmill and tracheal & urethral stenting capabilities), we are even more proud of our cohesive and collaborative staff. We believe in our staff and support their ongoing growth.

At VCA we believe that postgraduate training is no longer limited to university settings and we love being able to offer progressive and cutting edge internship programs. VREC currently has an Internship class of four and we would expect any Specialist joining the team to participate in their education and hopefully also become a mentor for future growth and development.

Long Island is a great place to live and work. Westbury has all the charms of a suburban community with the perks of being a short drive to Manhattan. Close to the beaches, close to nature, and close to the city. In addition to major and minor sporting events, just about any outdoor activity can be had here, from hiking/biking/horseback riding to apple and pumpkin picking!

The annualized base for this position ranges from $200,000 to $250,000 and is negotiable based on experience and credentials. This position is also eligible for production/commission and other variable pay programs.
