ASSOCIATE DVM
Lytle Veterinary Clinic | Lytle, TX
Who We Are:
At the Lytle Veterinary Clinic (https://lytlevet.com/), you will experience an atmosphere of a team that loves to encourage and motivate one another to practice the best medicine, for every patient, every time. That passion extends to our clients through proactively educating them to become better pet owners.
We are a small animal clinic, just south of San Antonio, Texas. Close enough to enjoy big-city amenities but far enough away to enjoy the slower pace of country life. Our clinic, as well as our community, has experienced a lot of growth over the past couple of years, and we are looking for a small animal Associate Veterinarian ready to become established in a progressive practice and work closely with our clients and provide exceptional care to our patients.
A great place to live:
The city of San Antonio is just a short drive from Lytle and is full of family fun and Texas history. Visit the Alamo, Mission trails, and some of our many museums to learn all about Texas and San Antonio. On the beautiful Riverwalk, you can enjoy shopping, dining, theaters, social clubs, and museums. They also have Sea World, Fiesta Texas, the Zoo, and Caverns to explore – all just minutes from each other. Texas is also known for its beautiful Hill Country where you can go for water recreation, hiking, camping, hunting, and scenery. The wildflower-covered hills in the spring are majestic! Just outside of San Antonio are some of the oldest towns in Texas- Gruene, Fredericksburg, and Luckenbach- you can shop, eat, visit wineries and even enjoy some live music. Like the beach? We are a short 3-hour drive from the beaches of the Texas Gulf Coast. San Antonio also hosts the Southwest Veterinary Symposium every other year!
