I am offering $3000/week for a full time position in Fairbanks, Alaska for the summer of 2021. It is a very mixed practice with roughly 2/3 small animal and 1/3 large animal. Horse work is the dominant portion of the large animal but small ruminants are frequently seen along with pigs and other livestock. Normal office hours are 9-12 and 3-6 Monday to Friday. The 12-3 slot is reserved for personal time. Appointments are booked on 30 minute time slots. There are no regular clinic hours on weekends. I handle all my own emergencies when I am available. The clinic is completely non-computerized, all records are on paper. I have one assistant who works as tech, receptionist, and bookkeeper. There are 2 housing options provided with the job. There is an apartment attached to the clinic for year round use and a cabin typically used in summer months. This is not a mentoring position. I will be gone most of the summer and will not be reachable when gone. There will certainly be time for someone to have a week a month off if desired to do your own exploring. The job would begin in late May and go until mid-September or October depending on how the Covid-19 situation develops. I am hoping to put the practice up for sale in late 2021. This job would give an interested party a chance to evaluate the practice. The practice is located in a residential neighborhood where the average lot is 5 acres. A trail system runs through the property that is groomed as a cross-country ski trail in the winter and is used as a running/biking trail in the summer. From November to April you can step out the door, put your skis on and have access to over 20 miles of trails. The closest elementary school has consistently received high marks and is within walking distance. The University of Alaska is 2 miles away and offers numerous cultural/academic opportunities to the public. Our international airport is 12 minutes away with direct flights to the lower 48. The clinic is downstairs and living quarters are upstairs. There are tremendous tax advantages to having the house and clinic together. I will be able to finance the sale. The best way to reach me is to CALL, I often do not look at e-mail for a week or more. 907-479-3641
