About us:  

No barks allowed. 

At Forest Hills Cat Hospital, we've been caring exclusively for cats since 1974 — making us the oldest feline-only practice east of the Mississippi. We’ve created a peaceful, bark-free space where our patients (and our staff!) can truly thrive.

We’re looking for a full-time Associate Veterinarian to join our cat-loving crew in Middle Village, NY. Whether you’re a seasoned feline expert or a new grad with a passion for meow medicine, we’re excited to welcome someone who shares our commitment to compassionate, high-quality care.

What makes us special:

  • A tight-knit team of 3 collaborative DVMs, including a Fear Free Certified, ABVP-boarded Feline Diplomate

  • An all-cat clientele in a stress-minimized environment

  • No after-hours emergencies

  • Equipped with in-house ultrasound, digital radiography, and in-house labs

  • Licensed veterinary technicians and a team that genuinely enjoys working together

We are passionate about providing excellent medicine in a calm, cat-centered setting — and we’d love to meet a like-minded veterinarian who wants to grow with us.
