At AHMP, we strongly believe that doctors are the most valuable element of the animal healthcare system. We provide our veterinarians with state-of-the-art equipment, Mentoring Programs, and we support their Continuous Education.
Our Mentorship Program
Our Mentorship Program is a dialogue in which we share our intentions, plans, and goals with a new hire. We help new hired Veterinarians improve their confidence in any veterinary focus by providing exclusive support on site. Our primary objective is to help new hires fulfill their full potential with Animal Hospital of Morris Park and make them feel as a part of our team in the shortest time frame.
Our Mentorship Program includes two phases.
Phase One
We provide doctors with a comprehensive tour of the hospital and get them familiarized with the
space, staff, regulations, and flow of our company. Based on our experience, this helps new hires to become familiar with their surroundings; making them feel comfortable with their job environment, tasks, and company policies fast. We want all our new hires to quickly get in the mindset of becoming a productive member of our team.

Phase Two
The 2nd phase of the Mentorship Program is related to Professional Development. We encourage every veterinary professional to develop their own specialty within the field based on their specific interests.
The Professional Development Mentorship is designed as a day-to-day process focused on improving new hires' diagnostic skills and bringing them to the utmost professional level. All recent graduates, as well as beginning doctors, are welcome to shadow our seasoned veterinarians. If a new hire is interested in doing surgeries, new veterinarians are encouraged to scrub in with our expert surgeon, where the experienced doctor assists the new doctor.
Since many doctors work here, should a new hire have uncertainties, case discussion and consultation between veterinarians are the norm and encouraged. We use an internal Ultra Sonographer specialist and urge the use of Lab and X-Ray consultations for difficult cases.
Professional Development Program
Our Professional Development Program is tailor-made, focusing on the needs of each individual Veterinarian to help evolve their specialty. We design each program based on the Doctor's level of proficiency in the different areas of veterinary medicine as well as on their interests. We focus on the areas that need the most attention. Our goal is to help all our Doctors, including seasoned Veterinarians, grow professionally. Our Management Team strives to provide solutions and applicable tools for Doctors' everyday necessities. Every week, we have case discussions where Veterinarians share their best practices, ask questions, and find answers to the most challenging situations. We have an open dialogue covering every aspect of our medicine because we understand how important high quality service is. All Veterinarians are encouraged to collaborate with their colleagues and improve their methods and approaches. Every month, we host an in-house training with guest speakers that cover themes which are found to be the most prevalent in day-to-day services: from drug usage to new Diagnostics Technologies. Our Doctors request what they want to learn and we deliver.
Continuous Education
We encourage every veterinarian to evolve their unique specialty and assist them every step of the way. Constant evolving of our doctors' specialties is a cornerstone of AHMP's success. We value novel approaches and ideas and support those who are looking for professional development. Every Doctor at AHMP should attend one national and one local veterinary conference. We cover all expenses and the time spent in the conference is also paid in full. Our doctors choose what CE they would like to get and we take care of it. Time spent on CE is considered work time and is paid as such.
