More About us
A Team Built on Support and Connection
Work in an environment centered on collaboration, compassion, and respect — not just for our patients and clients, but for each other.
Our goal has always been to build a positive, supportive culture where people feel heard, encouraged to grow, and proud of the work they do every day.
— Dr. Emily Perkins
Collaboration Over Hierarchy
Our doctors and support team work side by side, regularly discussing cases and supporting one another. You're never working in isolation. You're part of a team that values shared knowledge and input.
Kindness and Non-Judgment
We believe in meeting people where they are, both our clients and our team. Respect and empathy guide how we communicate, problem-solve, and support one another.
Time to Do Things Right
We prioritize thoughtful, thorough care, which means giving our team the time and space to communicate, educate, and follow through without feeling rushed.
Meaningful Relationships
We encourage our team to build meaningful relationships with the pets we serve and their families. By prioritizing time over volume, we create space to truly connect, support, and educate the families who trust us with their pet's care.
Build a Long-Term Career Here
Many of our team members have been with AVMC for 10 to 20+ years. That kind of longevity doesn't happen by accident. It's the result of a culture built on trust, support, and genuine care for one another.
We've intentionally created a workplace where people want to stay, grow, and build meaningful relationships with both their teammates and the families we serve.

Why Join the AVMC Team?
At Associated Veterinary Medical Center, we believe supporting our team goes beyond the job. We've built an environment where people feel valued, supported, and able to grow both professionally and personally.
We Make Time to Connect
We believe a strong team is built both inside and outside the clinic.
- Team outings throughout the year (baseball games, bowling, gatherings)
- Celebrations that fit our schedule… even if that means celebrating the holidays in February
- Informal get-togethers that bring the team together in a relaxed, fun way
We don’t follow a strict formula. We simply make space to connect and enjoy time together while respecting everyone’s right to work-life balance.
