About The Company
At Alliance Animal Health, we’re proud to be home to 225+ veterinary practices across the U.S., and we believe that the best medicine and the best culture start at the local level. That’s why we prioritize medical autonomy and support our veterinarians in making the decisions that matter most for your patients and your community. When a practice joins our network, the identity and leadership are maintained. Our role is to be a true partner, offering dedicated support in areas like recruitment, marketing, finance, and operations, so our veterinarians can stay focused on what they do best: caring for their patients.​ Whether you're just getting started in your career, growing in a central support role, or planning for practice ownership, we’re here with personalized pathways and a team that’s behind you the whole way. Our mission is simple: support those made to heal and care for animals while creating a place where veterinary professionals thrive. We build everything on a foundation of our core values: Passion, Engagement, Trust, and Service, a commitment that earned us a spot on Inc.’s Best Workplaces 2025. We’re proud to share that recognition with every member of our team.
About the Role

Company Description

The Animal Emergency and Specialty Center of NWA is a well-established and growing emergency and critical care practice. We are the only after hour facility in the Northwest Arkansas area and have a large pool of supportive referring veterinarians.  Our practice is fully equipped with digital radiography, large touch screen monitors in all client rooms, Ultrasound, Idexx laboratories in house, and a ForceTriad electrosurgical system. Just as important, we have a friendly, highly skilled, motivated, and fun-loving staff. Our practice is remarkably busy, so it is important for our doctors and students to be able to handle high-stress situations, multi-task well, and have good communication skills.  

Northwest Arkansas is home to Crystal Bridges-a world class art museum, the state’s largest live-music amphitheater, and a multitude of distinctive historic downtowns.  It is also the home to four state parks, making it a prime destination for hiking, biking, and anything outdoors.
