Regional Medical Director | Veterinary Urgent Care

Job SummaryThe Regional Medical Director (RMD) serves as a key clinical and business leadership partner across their region, supervising the region’s Lead Veterinarians and working closely with Hospital Directors and executive leadership to drive growth, uphold medical excellence, and reinforce Scout’s culture and values across all locations. Scout does not yet have Lead Veterinarians in place at every location; until a given location has one, the RMD directly supervises that location’s staff veterinarians, layering in the Lead Veterinarian as the supervising authority once that role is filled there. This role ensures consistent, high-quality patient care, supports doctor development, strengthens referral partnerships, and serves as the primary point of contact for regional business operations.As Scout continues to grow, dedicated regional operations support may be added alongside this role. Today, the RMD partners directly with executive leadership on business matters, and the scope of this partnership will be reassessed as the organization scales.

Why Scout?

We care... a lot. Founded by two veterinarians, Scout was built with an employee- and team-first philosophy. That means showing up for one another, putting in the work, and doing what’s right for our patients, clients, and teams.

We support our people with thoughtful onboarding, regular check-ins, continuing education, and the trust and flexibility to make sound decisions for the patients and teams in their care.

We’re building something meaningful and we’re doing it together. Whether you want to focus on your craft, help shape what’s next for Scout, or a little of both, you’ll find room here to grow, contribute, and make an impact.

If you’re looking for a place that values your voice, invests in your growth, and puts patients and people first, we’d love to talk. Come see what we’re building.
