The GTHS is actively searching for a new Director of Medicine (DOM), Veterinarian, to join our dedicated team. This crucial role is essential to sustaining and expanding the life-saving services that the GTHS provides to the community, and it comes with the added benefit of enjoying the exceptional lifestyle that Collingwood offers.
Collingwood’s Unmatched Lifestyle
Nestled between the breathtaking Georgian Bay and the slopes of the Blue Mountains, Collingwood is more than just a place to live—it’s a lifestyle. The town is a four-season paradise, offering unparalleled opportunities for outdoor adventures like skiing, hiking, biking, and waterfront activities. For professionals seeking a balance between a fulfilling career and an active, outdoor-oriented life, Collingwood provides the perfect backdrop. The community is welcoming and vibrant, with a strong emphasis on work-life balance, making it an ideal location for veterinary professionals looking to make a difference while enjoying life to the fullest.
A Role Focused on Impact
The DOM at the GTHS will play a pivotal role in shaping the future of animal welfare in the region. Unlike traditional private practice roles, this position is uniquely focused on what veterinary professionals love most—surgery and direct animal care. The DOM will lead a skilled team in performing life-saving procedures, diagnosing, and treating medical conditions in the Animal Centre population, and spearheading community outreach initiatives. With minimal public or client interaction and no administrative tasks like scheduling or billing, this role allows for an unwavering focus on patient outcomes.
The Essential Role in Our Future Growth
The GTHS is entering an exciting phase of growth, and the DOM will be at the heart of our mission to expand and enhance our services. As the only accessible animal hospital in the region capable of serving large dogs, the South Georgian Bay community relies on the GTHS to provide essential care. While the hospital continues to meet the growing demand, bringing on a new DOM is key to maintaining our high standards and ensuring our impact can be extended even further.
“This role is an incredible opportunity for someone who is passionate about shelter medicine and ready to lead,” said Karen Marsh, executive director at the GTHS. “The new Director of Medicine will play a central role in shaping our future and helping us continue to deliver life-saving care to the animals and families who depend on us.”
How to Apply
Veterinary professionals interested in making a significant impact while enjoying the dynamic lifestyle that Collingwood offers are encouraged to apply. The GTHS offers competitive compensation, opportunities for professional growth, and the chance to work in a brand-new, state-of-the-art facility.
