Ready to Lead a High-Performing Team in One of Ontario’s Most Beautiful Outdoor Destinations?

I’m delighted to share a standout opportunity for a Small Animal Veterinary Surgeon seeking a Medical Director role in a northern Ontario community famous for its natural beauty, year-round adventure, and exceptionally welcoming lifestyle.

If you’re passionate about high-quality medicine, want to shape the culture and clinical standards of a thriving hospital, and dream of living somewhere where lakes, forests, trails, and wide-open spaces are right on your doorstep—this could be the perfect fit.

You’ll be joining a long-established, full-service hospital with a strong commitment to preventative care, a wide range of medical, surgical, and dental services, and excellent in-house diagnostics, including ultrasound and digital radiography. With a loyal client base and a dedicated clinical team, this is an environment where your leadership truly makes a difference.

Outside of work, the region offers four spectacular seasons, with opportunities for kayaking, fishing, hiking, snowmobiling, skiing, and endless exploration of lakes and boreal forest. It’s a chance to enjoy an affordable, relaxed lifestyle without sacrificing amenities or community culture.

What’s on Offer:

  • Attractive salary package reflective of experience and leadership responsibilities

  • Comprehensive health benefits, including medical, dental, and vision

  • Coverage for allied health services such as physiotherapy and chiropractic care

  • Robust mental-health support

  • Substantial CE funding plus paid leave for professional development

  • Paid licensing, dues, and professional liability insurance

  • Generous annual leave, sick time, and personal days

  • Excellent staff pet discounts

  • Annual clothing allowance

  • Performance-based bonus opportunities

  • Relocation assistance available for candidates moving to the area

  • Immigration support for international applicants

If you’re looking for a leadership role where you can influence clinical excellence, nurture a supportive team, and truly enjoy where you live, I’d welcome a conversation!
