Opportunity in Phillips County, Montana
Posted:  2/25/10

Job Description
Objective:  Our practice, located in north-central, MT, is looking for a veterinarian to begin taking over the responsibilities of one of our two current doctors. The practice has a unique set-up with another practice in town – most easily described as consolidation. Two veterinarians operate out of two different facilities – one set up more for equine and the other for cattle and small animals. Operating under two different roofs, yet as partners, allows each to focus on what they love most about medicine, yet share equipment, facilities (when necessary) and it allows some great purchasing power in terms of drugs and supplies. The owner, who has been practicing for nearly 40 years, is ready to slow down and mentor a new graduate to take over his responsibilities. As a current “two” doctor practice, a third associate would be working with the two other veterinarians for a considerable amount of time, until eventually he/she is comfortable with taking over the caseload. A desire to buy-in is not necessary, but is certainly welcome if you desire.   
Training Required:  DVM and ability to obtain a MT License   
Experience Desired:  New Graduates or Experienced Practitioners    
Salary & Benefits:  $60,000+, DOE 

Species Percentages
Beef -  70 
Equine -  10
Small Animals -  20

Environment
Facilities provided:   The practice is a mixed animal practice, but is based primarily on cow-calf production. One of the two partners does a fair bit of equine as well. The ranches are virtually all family owned operations (a very important factor in veterinary economics), well equipped, running from 300 up to 1400 head of mother cows. The practice works on a herd health concept with very little, if any, 'fire engine' activity involved. Individual cases are brought to the clinic for proper, professional and comfortable care. The practices are equipped with: • In House Lab • Ultrasound • X-ray • Surgery Suites • Large animal working facilities including a Hydraulic Chute
Other personnel:    Two veterinarians, technicians, receptionists and a book keeper 
Practice Strengths:  In the fall our veterinarians each pregnancy test from 12 to 15 thousand head of cows and heifers. Some 6,000 to 8,000 heifers are Bands vaccinated each fall and winter, and in the spring we BSE about 500 bulls. The practice offers complete and comprehensive professional care and service to their clients, consequently doing considerable consultation, and providing a complete and comprehensive inventory of products for preventative herd health care. Our clientele is firmly established, repeat clients, many with over thirty years history with the practice. Although we are a cow-calf based practice, we perform complete care for our companion animal friends including orthopedic surgery.  
Practice Area:  We are located in north-central Montana and surrounded by gently rolling short grass prairies – perfect for farming and ranching! The Missouri and Milk Rivers flow through from west to east and form rough broken land near the rivers. The Little Rocky Mountains offer a mountain experience and opportunities for fishing and hunting (deer, antelope, elk and upland game birds). Sleeping Buffalo Hot Springs offers mineral bath pools including two water slides. Two excellent opportunities for golf recreation are also available. The town is home to slightly over 2000 citizens and the county supports 5,100. We also boast a low cost of living, a regional medical center, several elementary/middle schools and one of the highest ranked high schools in the state!
