Industry-Leading PTO Program
At SVP, we like to call it TRUE PTO--because here, you can actually take personal time off without worrying about making up lost production when you get back. Production-wise it’s like you never left. Relaxation-wise, it’s a game-changer.
High Producers Bonus
Eligible DVMs will earn a bonus payout of up to 10% additional production in the month after contract renewal. The bonus rate will be determined by their contracted production rate and the amount of excess production.
Maternity Leave
FULL PAY for four weeks. Plus short-term disability at 60% of your salary (six weeks for natural birth, eight weeks for C-section), and all still in addition to your PTO.
SVP Leadership Academy
At SVP, we never stop investing in our people. This executive education experience is designed to develop your business leadership acumen to drive success around your hospital’s culture, team development, and operations.
So, what’s the culture like at SVP?
In a word...Amazing. (There’s a reason why we have the highest DVM retention rate in the country.)
