Advancing Veterinary Cancer Care Through Specialist-Led Medicine
AOSN's Oncology Specialty Group is uniting board-certified veterinary oncologists within a specialty-exclusive platform built to advance cancer care, protect clinical independence, and deliver better outcomes for the patients and families who need it most.
Specialty-Exclusive Oncology Network
Cancer care isn't one department among many, it's a specialty that demands dedicated resources, dedicated staffing, and a partner that understands the complexity of what you do every day. AOSN's Oncology Specialty Group was built from the ground up for board-certified veterinary oncologists, by the same team that created the nation's largest veterinary dermatology network. That singular focus means every resource, from chemotherapy drug procurement to diagnostic infrastructure, is designed around the demands of outpatient medical oncology, surgical oncology and radiation oncology. You practice medicine your way, with a partner whose only priority is helping veterinary oncology thrive.
What Joining AOSN’s Oncology Specialty Group Means for You
The support, community, and clinical freedom to focus on what matters most, giving every patient the best possible chance against cancer.
Clinical Autonomy
Your patients, your protocols, your professional judgment. We protect full clinical independence so you can design treatment plans based on what's best for each case, not corporate mandates or resource constraints.
Operational Support
From chemotherapy drug procurement and compliance to staffing, scheduling, and billing, our experienced operations team manages the business complexity so you can spend your energy where it counts: with your patients and their families.
Peer Collaboration
Immediate access to a national network of board-certified oncologists for case consultation, protocol discussion, and second opinions. Complex cancer cases benefit from collective expertise, and you'll never have to manage them in isolation again.
Competitive Compensation
Industry-leading compensation, comprehensive benefits, and equity structures designed to recognize the years of advanced training and emotional investment that define your career in oncology.

Oncology is emotionally demanding work. AOSN's outpatient-exclusive model means no emergency on-call, and no competing priorities, giving you the space to sustain a long, impactful career without burnout.
