About Mission Pet Health
Mission Pet Health was founded by veterinarians on the belief that local practices thrive with clinical autonomy, collaboration, and medical excellence. The organization provides world-class support to its 850+ hospital teams on a hyper-local basis so they can focus on what matters most: the medicine, their patients, and their team culture.
Driving the award-winning culture are the WAG values – Work Together, Amaze, and Grow. Mission Pet Health is veterinarian-led, people-focused, and on a mission to be the best place to work in veterinary medicine.
About the Role
The Regional Medical Director (RMD) for the Austin area serves as a clinical partner to veterinarians and hospitals, supporting teams at the local level while working alongside a Regional Operations Director to align medical leadership with hospital success. This role is designed for a veterinarian who enjoys mentoring doctors, strengthening hospital teams, and helping practices grow while maintaining high medical quality.
Unlike traditional oversight roles, our RMDs focus on supporting hospitals rather than managing them from a distance. We believe great veterinary medicine happens when doctors feel trusted, connected, and supported. You will blend mentorship, collaboration, and strategic leadership to ensure doctors feel supported, hospitals are well-resourced, and patients receive excellent care. This is an opportunity to help shape the veterinary culture of a region, supporting great hospitals and helping veterinarians build long-term, fulfilling careers.
The First Year
Your journey begins by building relationships with veterinarians and hospital teams while learning the strengths and opportunities of each hospital in the region. Over the first 90 days, you will establish a foundation for trust. Between 3–6 months, you will establish regular doctor collaboration and mentorship, support hospital teams with clinical resources, and assist with recruiting and onboarding veterinarians. By the 6–12 month mark, you will strengthen collaboration across hospitals, support service expansion where appropriate, and help develop emerging medical leaders within the region.
Join a Network of Excellence
As part of the Mission Pet Health leadership team, you are backed by the comprehensive resources of a larger network, allowing you to focus on empowering your teams and advancing medical excellence. You will join a nationwide community of over 20,000 veterinary professionals and collaborate with fellow field leaders to drive innovation.
Equal Opportunity Employer
