Job Description

Veterinary Assistants (VAs) at the Veterinary Medical Center of CNY perform a wide variety of duties in our emergency and specialty services, and most VA duties involve active, hands-on patient care. While each individual in the VA position receives the same basic VMC training, we respect the fact that individuals come to the VMC with unique experiences, education levels, skills, and talents. Keeping this in mind, our VAs are placed in positions where individual strengths can be utilized to best enhance the VMC and to best ensure a rewarding and successful professional experience for each individual. The VMC considers both individuals with prior veterinary experience or training and entry level applicants for VA positions.


We provide a supportive, collaborative workplace that prioritizes work/life harmony. We foster both professional and personal development and keep our focus on our team's overall wellness. We're proud of the excellent patient care we provide, and would love to add you to our team!

We are a 24-hour Emergency, Specialty and Critical Care center located in Syracuse, New York. We currently have a large team of full and part time emergency clinicians, as well as board certified specialists in surgery, internal medicine, radiology, critical care, and oncology. We also have a certified veterinary acupuncturist and a physical rehabilitation suite including underwater treadmill, hydrotherapy pool, and exercise room. Learn more about our practice at

The VMC offers a competitive compensation & benefits package. Evening, overnight, weekend, and holiday shifts all earn additional compensation differentials. Salary range negotiable for applicants with prior emergency/specialty veterinary experience.
