Description & Requirements
Since opening in 2010 as Nashville's first emergency and specialty hospital, Nashville Veterinary Specialists (NVS) has earned a reputation as the hospital veterinarians trust with their most complex cases. That reputation extends far beyond Tennessee—in a recent 12-month period, we treated patients from 34 states. Clients routinely travel past closer hospitals to seek our care and referring veterinarians from across the region rely on our team for advanced diagnostics, specialty expertise, and exceptional patient care.
Our success is built on more than advanced medicine—it's built on our people. Collaboration is part of our everyday culture, with specialists working closely together through real-time discussions and shared problem-solving, not just formal consultations. Our experienced, highly skilled technicians are an integral part of the team, allowing doctors to practice at the highest level while delivering outstanding patient care. We are proud to have received the Ethos President's Award for Excellence in Team Engagement and Quality of Care for two consecutive years, reflecting our commitment to clinical excellence, teamwork, and a workplace where people genuinely enjoy coming to work.
