At West Ashley Veterinary Clinic in Charleston, SC, we’ve proudly served our community since 1987, combining cutting-edge medical care with a commitment to comfort and compassion. As a Fear Free Certified Practice, we’ve designed every aspect of our hospital to reduce stress for our patients - including separate entrances and hospitalization areas for dogs and cats, gentle handling techniques, and a calm, welcoming environment.
Our modern facility features seven exam rooms, two surgical suites, an ICU, and advanced imaging with digital radiography and ultrasound. We provide a full range of services including wellness and preventive care, dentistry, dermatology, surgery, senior care, diagnostics, and palliative support. With an in-house laboratory and thoughtfully designed treatment areas, we’re equipped to support a high level of care while maintaining a low-stress experience for both pets and their people.
As a teammate here, you’ll be part of a collaborative practice that values communication, kindness, and professional development. Whether you’re interested in expanding your surgical skills, working with a diverse caseload, or contributing to our Fear Free culture, this is a place where your growth is supported and your voice is heard.
Charleston offers a vibrant lifestyle with rich history, waterfront charm, and an unbeatable culinary scene. From historic neighborhoods and local festivals to nearby beaches and outdoor adventures, you’ll find plenty to enjoy when you’re off the clock.
If you’re looking to make a meaningful impact at a forward-thinking clinic in a coastal city full of character, we’d love to meet you.
The Veterinarian is responsible for providing high quality care to our patients while also developing rapport with their owners. In addition to physical examinations, surgeries, and dentistry, client communication and client education are of the upmost importance. It’s important that SVP Veterinarians treat each pet and client like part of the family.
