An established and growing independent first opinion practice is seeking an experienced Small Animal Veterinary Surgeon to join their friendly and supportive team. This is an excellent opportunity for a confident GP vet looking to work in a well-equipped practice with strong clinical standards, modern facilities, and a genuine focus on professional development. You'll join a progressive, five-year-old independent practice experiencing consistent year-on-year growth. The role involves a varied caseload of consultations, medical work, and routine soft tissue surgery, with a roughly 50/50 split between consults and surgery (with flexibility to lean towards medicine or surgery depending on your interests). The practice is exceptionally well equipped, offering advanced diagnostic and surgical facilities including a CT scanner and virtually everything expected of a modern veterinary practice. Standard consultation times are 20 minutes, allowing for high-quality patient care, and certificates or further development are actively supported. This role would suit a GP vet with 2+ years' experience who is confident managing a broad first-opinion caseload and enjoys working collaboratively within a close-knit team.
