About Us
Gentle Vet Animal Hospital has established itself in the Green Bay, WI community since 1970 As a full-service veterinary hospital. We continue to grow and thrive in this community by providing kind and compassionate animal care. No two days are the same when you work at Gentle Vet Animal Hospital. You’ll work on the cutting edge of veterinary medicine and develop your skills in ways you never could at a traditional practice. We have a special focus on treating dogs, cats, small animals, avians, reptiles, wildlife, and many other exotic animals! We see a large number of complicated dog and cat medical cases. We also service a local wildlife sanctuary and zoo. Our team members enjoy strong mentorship, a dynamic training protocol, a supportive work environment, and a passionate, energetic team. We think you’ll thrive at Gentle Vet if you want to practice advanced medicine while enjoying a fun team culture. We are consistently striving for excellence and are proud to have received ‘Low-Stress Handling Silver Certification’ in 2012 and again in 2015, and again in 2022.
Gentle Vet is working hard to provide noticeably better care and service. We want the staff to have great work experiences, and as a result, the staff will then give the clients and pets a great experience. We want to focus on quality medicine, and while wellness is important too, we focus hard on tough cases and exotic medicine. This creates an ever-changing communication environment. We will try to help you reach your full potential through training and mentoring.
