Veterinary Medical Oncologist

Medical Oncologist

Medical Oncology opportunity in Mission, KS
Schedule: Full-Time

Why Join Mission Veterinary Emergency & Specialty

Since 1993, Mission has been built on one promise: to show up for referring veterinarians, their clients, and their pets. We’ve kept that promise, and it’s made us one of the most respected specialty hospitals in the state. Our ECC, internal medicine, and surgery teams work closely so cases move smoothly between services. Every decision starts with what’s best for the patient.

Teaching is part of our culture. We run rotating and surgical internship programs with weekly radiology rounds, daily ICU rounds, and formal case presentations, and our interns go on to private practice and residencies. We’re looking for a Medical Oncologist to help grow a hospital where people like working together and practice a high level of medicine.

Inside our 22,000 sq. ft. facility you’ll find a fully equipped ICU with cage-side oxygen and suction, oxygen cages, full monitoring, a ventilator, a dedicated ultrasound for AFAST, infusion pumps, defibrillation and pacing capabilities, and dedicated ICU nursing staff.

As part of Ethos, your voice, growth, and expertise truly matter.
