Veterinarian - Summerville, SC

Vet-Owned. People-First.

AcutePet Urgent Care is redefining how urgent veterinary care is delivered.

Since opening in May 2025, our Summerville team has quickly become a trusted resource for pet families and local veterinarians throughout the Lowcountry. That growth is driven by a strong clinical culture, meaningful community relationships, and a real need for thoughtful, accessible urgent care. As demand continues to build, we’re adding to our team and looking for additional veterinarians who want to practice high-quality medicine in a model designed for both clinical excellence and personal sustainability.

We deliver emergency-level care in an urgent care setting. That means meaningful cases, strong diagnostics, and real impact — without overnights or the intensity of traditional 24/7 ER schedules.

This role may be a strong fit for:

• Emergency veterinarians seeking a shift from overnight or high-acuity ER
• Experienced general practitioners ready to expand their scope
• Early-career DVMs interested in urgent care with structured mentorship
• Doctors who value autonomy alongside collaborative support
