Coastal Cat Clinic, a feline-specific hospital located in Pacifica, CA, is looking for a motivated professional to provide exceptional service to clients & patients in a team-oriented environment. The position will start in September after we’ve moved to our new facility.
Living in Pacifica:
Pacifica is great for people who enjoy going to the beach, hiking, and relaxing. Mild winters, cool summers, and the natural beauty of the rugged coastline make it a highly desirable place to live. Pacifica is a major Northern California surfing center, but there are also other outdoor activities like fishing on the Pacifica Pier, trails for hiking and biking, or relaxing on the uncrowded beaches enjoying the beauty of the mountains rising from the shoreline and dramatic sunsets.
Who We Are:
Coastal Cat Clinic is a Gold Certified Cat Friendly Practice with three full time veterinarians. We are only 20 to 30 minutes away from San Francisco, many other peninsula cities, and are accessible by public transportation. We are outfitted with the latest equipment including digital x-ray, digital dental x-ray, in-house lab machines, and ultrasound and are always striving to provide high quality medical care to our patients. Coastal Cat Clinic also has a couple of hospital cats to provide daily love to the staff (in exchange for some treats and pets of course).
We foster a team-oriented environment and are open to change for the best of our patients. “Coastal is a great clinic to work for because you get to focus on providing top quality low-stress patient care in a collaborative environment. Every member provides a value to the team and is encouraged to voice their opinions on how the clinic can continue to operate at the highest of standards.” – CCC Staff Member
