Now for a busy and rewarding ECC caseload
Based within a PDSA host practice, Sheffield is one of our busiest clinics and consistently ranks among the top-performing sites within the region.
The clinic is supported by a fantastic team of approximately 10 vets and 10 nurses, many of whom have been with the business for a significant number of years. With veterinary surgeons typically staying between 7 and 9 years and some nurses having been part of the team for over 18 years, staff retention is exceptionally strong and reflects the supportive culture within the clinic.
The team is renowned for being close knit, collaborative and welcoming. While the clinic can be extremely busy, particularly during the summer months, colleagues work together to support one another and maintain high standards of patient care. It's a challenging but highly rewarding environment where you'll have exposure to a varied emergency and critical care caseload while working alongside experienced ECC professionals.
This is an excellent opportunity for a vet looking to develop their ECC skills within a well-established and respected team that people genuinely enjoy being part of.
