About Us:
England Run Veterinary Clinic is a 5-doctor, AAHA-accredited, full-service general practice located in Fredericksburg, VA. We’ve recently expanded to include weekend Urgent Care services, bridging the gap between general practice hours and emergency care. Our urgent care team provides after-hours support for canine and feline patients with common acute conditions like vomiting/diarrhea, wound care, ear infections, and end-of-life services.
We are equipped with modern technology including electronic medical records, digital radiography, and a full suite of Antech in-house lab equipment. We utilize Avimark software and ScribeNote, an AI-powered charting tool, to streamline documentation.

Confident and safe animal restraint (canine and feline)
Familiarity with vaccines, medications, and medical terminology
Accurate medical record-keeping and transferring notes to PIMS
Proficiency in Avimark, including inputting charges
Assisting with radiographs and holding for x-rays

Supporting doctors to keep the hospital flow smooth and efficient
Light housekeeping duties (e.g., laundry) as needed

Prior experience in a veterinary setting (1–2 years minimum)
Strong multitasking and organizational skills
Self-motivated and team-oriented mindset
Ability to work in a high-energy, fast-paced environment
Excellent communication and problem-solving skills
