About Blue Ridge Veterinary\nAssociates

For over three decades, we've been\nthe veterinary heartbeat of Loudoun County. Our 30,000 sq. ft. state-of-the-art\nfacility isn't just impressive on paper—it's where ten veterinarians\ncollaborate daily on cases that range from routine wellness to complex internal\nmedicine.

What makes us different:

\n
• Wildlife\n heroes : We're one of the few practices\n accepting all Good Samaritan wildlife for triage
\n
• Diversity\n of cases : Household pets, small farm\n animals, exotics, and reptiles keep every day interesting
\n
• Community\n deep-rooted : Strong partnerships with local\n rescue organizations
\n
• Innovation-focused : Continuous facility upgrades including MRI, digital\n radiography, on-site blood bank, and Class IV laser therapy
\n

Your Role: More Than Management

As Medical Director, you won't be\nburied in paperwork. You'll be a practicing veterinarian who happens to\nlead—someone who mentors new grads in the morning, performs surgery in the\nafternoon, and shapes the medical vision of the practice throughout.

You'll be responsible for:

\n
• Setting the\n medical and surgical direction for a collaborative 10-doctor team
\n
• Mentoring\n associates and fostering a culture where learning thrives
\n
• Ensuring\n gold-standard care while managing the practical side of inventory and\n protocols
\n
• Partnering\n with our Hospital Manager on recruiting top talent
\n
• Supporting\n your team's "passion projects" and continuing education goals
\n

We're looking for someone who:

\n
• Leads by\n inspiration, not intimidation
\n
• Balances\n clinical excellence with team development
\n
• Genuinely\n enjoys client education and communication
\n
• Wants to\n build something lasting in a community-focused practice
\n

The Lifestyle Factor

Purcellville offers something rare:\nsophisticated small-town living with big-city access.

\n
• 30\n minutes to Dulles International Airport
\n
• 20\n minutes to Metro access into DC and\n Northern Virginia
\n
• 60\n minutes to Washington, D.C.
\n
• Surrounded\n by wineries, breweries, hiking trails, and Blue Ridge\n Mountain views
\n

This is where you can afford a home\nwith land, enjoy farm-to-table restaurants in a renovated grain mill, and still\ncatch a show at the Kennedy Center when the mood strikes. Your kids will love\nthe roller rink and baseball fields; you'll love the work-life balance that\nactually exists here.

Ready to Lead?

If you're tired of corporate\nveterinary medicine that treats doctors like cogs, or you're ready to step up\nfrom associate to leader in a practice that values integrity and innovation\nequally, let's talk.

Blue Ridge Veterinary Associates is where your career ambitions and\nquality of life finally align.
