Description complète de l’entreprise
Being part of VetStrategy is about being part of something bigger – an ever-growing community, where we connect person-to-person and skill-to-need, united by a common purpose of healthy animals, happy owners. From our humble beginning in 2006 to the present day, we continue to make a difference in the lives of people who have dedicated themselves to this industry. When VetStrategy co-founders Orin Litman and his wife, Dr. Michelle Cutler, decided to acquire McLean Animal Hospital in 2006, they focused on three promises – our Customer Promise of world-class veterinary care, delivered locally; our People Promise, to be a great place to work; and our Sustainability Promise to be a force for good for patients, people and our plant. Keeping our three promises led VetStrategy to become the leading veterinary network in Canada, with veterinary practices, 24-hour emergency care, and specialty hospitals coast-to-coast. We have developed and refined a model for supporting our practices across the country. What we do: We care for those dedicated to caring for animals by creating a workplace where we focus on innovation, engagement, and teamwork. We know the blood, sweat and tears that have gone into building each practice, and we don’t want to touch that – we truly embrace the uniqueness of each clinic. Our heritage first approach means we won’t change a clinic’s name, culture or heritage. We understand the challenges our veterinary teams face and are committed to doing what’s right – for them, their clients, and their patients. We care about the future of veterinary medicine. Everything we do comes back to ensuring that veterinarians have the time, support, and infrastructure to focus on responsible medicine and quality care. We believe in empowering our support office and clinic staff and providing them opportunities to develop their skills and grow in their careers.

About WAVES
West Coast Animal Veterinary Emergency Specialty Hospital (WAVES) is a 24/7 emergency and referral hospital located in Langford, on the West Shore of Greater Victoria. Our 9,700-square-foot facility provides emergency and critical care alongside specialty services in internal medicine, surgery, neurology, and diagnostic imaging.

At WAVES, we believe exceptional medicine starts with a strong team. Our emergency veterinarians work closely with experienced RVTs, veterinary assistants, and board-certified specialists to provide comprehensive care and support the referring veterinary community across Vancouver Island.
Mentorship That Meets You Where You Are
We understand that every veterinarian brings a different level of experience, confidence, and clinical interest to emergency medicine. That's why we want to create an environment where you can continue to develop your skills while knowing support is available when you need it.
Depending on your experience and goals, mentorship may include:

Ongoing access to experienced veterinarians for clinical questions and support as you begin working independently.
Case discussions and collaboration with experienced emergency clinicians and specialty teams.
Support with clinical skill development, including emergency surgery, critical patient management, diagnostic decision-making, client communication, and emergency caseload management.
Continued mentorship as your career progresses, with opportunities to develop your interests and take on new challenges over time.
