Orthopedic Surgeon Veterinarian

Norway Veterinary Hospital is looking to add a compassionate and skilled Orthopedic Surgeon Veterinarian to our team.

Norway Veterinary Hospital was opened by Dr. Charles Gauger in 1964 as a full-service hospital, caring for farm animals, horses and pets. As the practice thrived, it outgrew the original facility & ground was broken for a more contemporary facility at our current location on Main Street in the early 1970's. Dr. Todd Gauger joined the practice in 1988 and purchased the practice in 2003. We have recently expanded and remodeled to further accommodate our growing practice. We offer a beautiful and relaxing setting in which we aim to provide superior medical and surgical care in a gentle and efficient manner. Our team of veterinary professionals and staff consists of highly qualified individuals who strive to keep you informed of the latest preventative health care and treatment options available. Our service offerings include: Wellness Exams, Senior Pet Wellness, Surgery, Patient Monitoring, Pain Management, Hospitalization, Radiology, Laboratory, Dentistry, Dermatology, Pharmacy/ Pet Food / Over the Counter Products, Orthopedics, Immunizations, Microchipping, & Emergency & Urgent Care. https://norwayvet.com/
