About Us:

Appelbaum Animal Clinic is a family-owned, 2 1/2 doctor small animal clinic in the heart of Tulsa, Oklahoma.  We are soon to be breaking ground on a new clinic and are seeking a full- or part-time associate veterinarian to join our team and become a part of this tight knit group.

Our staff is well-trained, and our emphasis on the details regarding client care is what separates us from our competition. We have in-house lab, and our services include wellness and sick patient care, soft tissue and some orthopedic surgery, dentistry/dental radiology, therapy laser, ultrasound, and DR digital radiology. We have a great working relationship with both referral/ER centers in Tulsa, as well as with Oklahoma State University College of Vet Med. Our staff and doctors have years of experience in handling various types of cases, and we have a family-oriented environment; we truly do like each other.

Mentorship is very important to us. New and recent graduates will be offered mentorship as much as they would prefer. Our doctors enjoy discussing difficult cases with each other, and we are open to new ideas and perspectives as well.

We treat a wide variety of patients, from preventive medicine (vaccine/parasite control) to complicated internal medicine, dermatologic, and surgical cases (routine spay/neuter, soft tissue, dentistry, and some orthopedic surgery).

Benefits and pay are commensurate with experience, and include CE allowance, organization membership, licensing and DEA/OBN registration, and SIMPLE IRA (matching), among others.
