Our Story: How We Became a Leading Veterinary Recruiter
After a very successful career in private practice, Caren Carney D.V.M. turned down an offer to be a clinic manager to pursue her dream to provide relief services to veterinarians. It is this dream that led to the founding of Holiday Vet. Experiencing the great need for a veterinary relief service, she wanted to ease the burden and scheduling difficulties on clinics so they that they could focus on providing quality medicine.
Holiday Vet veterinary recruiters has grown from relief staffing to add permanent placements. Choose your own path:
- Relief vet
