Description

Kawartha Veterinary Emergency Clinic (KVEC), located in Peterborough, ON is considering energetic and passionate applicants for a hands-on Practice Manager (PM) to help drive profitable future growth and organizational development.


At KVEC, we care for those who can't speak for themselves with a focus on collaboration, compassion, and the pursuit of excellence in veterinary medicine.

In 2020, the clinic expanded in space, relocating to a beautiful new facility to ensure we have increased capacity to serve our community.

We are an American Animal Hospital Association or AAHA Accredited facility and strongly believe in the care we provide our patients.

Our continued focus is to treat our patients and their owners with the love and care they deserve, because it's also what we would want for our own pets.

In a perfect world, pets would never need emergency care.

But when they do, we are a team of dedicated, passionate veterinarians and support staff that will be there when they need us.
