Rehab Veterinarian (DVM) - Holisitic Veterinary Care

Holistic Veterinary Care

Founded by Dr. Gary Richter, a nationally recognized leader in integrative veterinary medicine and author of The Ultimate Pet Health Guide, Holistic Veterinary Care has spent years building something genuinely rare. We're the only clinic in Oakland with a dedicated rehabilitation center for pets, and the only practice in the Bay Area equipped with a hyperbaric oxygen chamber.

Now part of the VetnCare community, we're backed by a growing network of hospitals that share our commitment to advanced, high-quality care, while fully preserving the culture and clinical identity that makes this place what it is.

This isn't your typical general practice position. As our Rehab Veterinarian, you'll work alongside a multidisciplinary team and you'll lead rehabilitation consultations, deliver hands-on physical therapy, and contribute to a caseload that spans integrative medicine, regenerative treatments, and emerging therapies most practices simply don't offer.

New rehabilitation consultations are scheduled for 60 minutes, giving you the time to do the work right. The pace here is intentional, closer to a specialty referral environment than a high-volume GP, so you can focus on quality care without the chaos. You'll also see general practice cases including wellness visits, diagnostics, bloodwork, radiography, dentistry, and sedated procedures, so your skills stay broad even as your specialty deepens

You Will:

Work with an advanced suite of rehabilitation and integrative modalities, including:

• Underwater treadmill therapy
• Shockwave and cold laser therapy
• Physical rehabilitation programs
• Acupuncture and chiropractic care
• Stem cell therapy and joint injections
• Hyperbaric oxygen therapy and ozone therapy

About Our Team

Our clinical team includes Dr. Richter, two additional veterinarians, a part-time human physical therapist certified in veterinary rehabilitation, a part-time acupuncturist, and a part-time chiropractor. Several team members bring deep experience from human healthcare and have completed specialized veterinary training. Hiring decisions here are shaped as much by cultural fit as clinical skill. We're a collaborative, low-drama, patient-first group, and that matters.
