This is an ideal opportunity for a doctor already working elsewhere who is looking to add 1 day per week on a consistent basis, a veterinarian seeking dependable supplemental income, or someone who prefers ongoing relief work in a structured setting without being locked into a contract.

Enjoy a predictable, well-supported environment in a busy Brooklyn neighborhood, where a highly trained, experienced team and modern equipment allow you to focus on medicine and client care with a steady caseload.
