Associate Veterinarian

Company Description

Lakes on one side. Smoky Mountains on the other. A great practice in the middle.

Moyers Veterinary Hospital is looking for an Associate Veterinarian to join our team in Morristown, Tennessee, a friendly East Tennessee city tucked between two lakes and a short drive from Great Smoky Mountains National Park. If you want an established, well-loved practice and a place where weekends feel like a getaway, we'd love to meet you.

About the Role

Join a respected small animal hospital known in the community for friendly, knowledgeable care and a loyal client base.

• Full- or part-time schedule available
• Weekday hospital hours (Monday through Friday) with weekends off, so your Saturdays belong to the lake
• Competitive salary + production, relocation assistance, and a full benefits package
• Well-equipped hospital, including digital radiology, ultrasound, a surgical laser, and dental services
• A team that treats clients and patients like family, and each other too
• Room to practice quality medicine the way you want to

Why Morristown?

This is a town that works hard to give people reasons to be outside.

• Cherokee Lake is a bass angler's dream. It's regularly ranked among the best bass-fishing lakes in the Southeast, with roughly 400 miles of shoreline for boating, paddling, swimming, and camping. Striper fishing is big here too.
• Panther Creek State Park covers more than 1,400 acres on the lake, with 30+ miles of hiking trails, 15+ miles of mountain biking, horseback trails, and a lookout at Point Lookout with views over the lake and the Cumberland Mountains.
• Tennessee's Disc Golf Capital®. Morristown has four championship-caliber courses, so if you throw discs, you're going to be very happy.
• The Smokies are a short drive away. Morristown sits between Cherokee and Douglas Lakes, close to Great Smoky Mountains National Park, the most visited national park in the country, so a weekend hike or a Gatlinburg day trip is easy.
• A historic downtown with a quirky twist. After a major flood in 1962, downtown Morristown was rebuilt with a unique "overhead sidewalk" of elevated walkways connecting second-floor businesses. The district is on the National Register of Historic Places.
• Real small-town events. Downtown Green hosts the First Fridays concert series from May through October, plus the Farmers Market, Arts in the Park, and the International Food Festival.
• Craft beer, local food, and the arts. Grab a pint at 1907 Brewing Company in a revitalized historic downtown building, browse the Rose Center for the Arts in a Victorian schoolhouse, or pick up lunch downtown.
• Davy Crockett history. The Crockett Tavern Museum sits on the site of the frontiersman's boyhood home.
• Endurance and adventure events. Panther Creek hosts mountain bike races, trail runs, and a triathlon, if you like a little suffering with your scenery.
• Close to Knoxville. The bigger-city restaurants, sports, and airport are roughly 45 minutes away, while home stays quiet and affordable.

Job Description

• DVM degree and active (or eligible) Tennessee veterinary license
• Solid clinical and surgical skills and a client-friendly communication style
• A team player who wants to build lasting relationships with clients and patients
• Someone ready to trade traffic for lake views
