Are you burned out or sick of the quantity over quality approach/pressures that are so pervasive in contemporary veterinary medicine? Do you believe that feline care requires specialty training, exceptional consideration for feline-specific needs and that feline medicine has to start with wellness/prevention? Then our cat hospital is an exemplary fit for you! 

Our single-location feline practice, Meadows Cat Hospital, is located in idyllic Issaquah Washington situated at the gateway to the Cascades. It's a bustling and beautiful city/area loaded with opportunities for indoor/outdoor fun. Having served Issaquah for over 30 years, Meadows Cat Hospital is the only family-owned and operated practice in the area. We offer uncompromising quality feline medicine and 40-50 minute appointment blocks to ensure you get time with your patients and clients. Typical patient loads are 8-10 patients per doctor per day. We pride ourselves in our care and customer service and you will be supported by a mature team heavy with LVTs/CVTs, LVTs in-school/training, B.S.s, a Ph.D., you name it. Being family owned and operated is an ethos that we carry to our cores. It means supporting you (our doctors), the team, the clients, etc. We are a teaching hospital so expect mentorship and collaborative case-sharing. We do not believe in medicine performed in a vacuum nor do we believe our approach is the only right approach. We constantly try to push the hospital forward on every level. 

If you are searching for a position where you can really practice internal medicine, surgical care, dentals and preventative medicine (you know, all the things that cats need but are so often under-provided), then come visit us.
