Welcome to BLVD

Voted Best Vet in Chicago 🏆

Chicago’s only group of veterinarian owned and operated clinics where decisions are made by the veterinary professionals that work in them - not corporate investors.

Practice at BLVD

We are always aiming to connect with veterinarians with high clinical standards, a passion for patient care, and a knack for collaboration! Are you the go-to for tough clinical cases? Do your colleagues think you have some super human ability to understand cats and dogs? Are you the best at offering a gold standard spectrum of care to every client, every time? If so, we’d love to chat!

Our AAHA-accredited and independently owned small animal practices are located in four vibrant and bustling urban communities within Chicago–Logan Square, River North, Ravenswood, and Lakeview East. We pride ourselves on tailoring our clinics to meet the needs of each neighborhood, and share a passion for good Midwest hospitality with them.

Mentorship Program 💡

Once hired, veterinarians are paired with a senior BLVD veterinarian for a structured training and mentorship period regardless of experience level as part of our commitment to our core value of Learning and Collaboration. The training period will vary from two weeks for a highly experienced veterinarian to three months for a new DVM graduate. We don’t believe in a sink or swim culture. Veterinary medicine should never be like fast food service. There’s no “one size fits all” approach to patient care or our team members’ success. We are focused on setting and promoting attainable goals for our team that serve our main priority of best patient and client care.

All veterinarians at BLVD are supported by a robust and highly skilled team of veterinary technicians and assistants that are assigned to them each day. Each office also has an exceptionally skilled medical director that works shoulder to shoulder with all clinical staff to offer real time insight and guidance on all BLVD policies and procedures when needed. Our veterinarians focus on diagnosing, treatment plans, and communicating thoroughly with clients. Our first and most important core value is Best Patient and Client Care, and it's a full team effort here at BLVD.

At BLVD, we help to balance our challenging work with fun activities outside our 4 walls! BLVD sponsors quarterly team outings including bowling, Cubs games, paint parties, and happy hours. While we work hard on the job, we place a strong emphasis on work life balance, so when you're off work, you're truly off work.

We make building a vibrant professional environment a priority every day, so it is essential that the right candidate shares values that contribute to those goals. If this sounds like you, we'd just love to meet you!

I wonder if there’s something else we can fit here?
