About Us
Our strongest asset is our team, many of whom have been with us for over 4 years and some for over 10 years and as a team, we pride ourselves on not only providing excellent care to our clients, but also to each other!
Owner and veterinary surgeon Raul Galvan, qualified from Cordoba in Spain before moving to the UK in 2007 and becoming the owner of Truro Vets4Pets in 2018. Raul holds an AVP certificate in surgery, with special interest in orthopaedics and minimally invasive (keyhole) surgery.
As well as being supported by Raul, we also have an outstanding team of nurses with our clinical team also supported by an equally brilliant and welcoming team of 5 client care advisors as well as our Practice Manager, RVN and Mental Health First Aider.

The role
Our days are structured well with 15-minute consults as standard with 30 minutes given for more complicated cases or for graduates. We have one vet operating each day, with their consults starting later in the afternoon. We also make sure there are plenty of on the day ‘run over breaks’ to catch up, as well as emergency slots. Raul is a tremendous support to the team with plenty of regular catch ups during the week to discuss cases, and with clinical meetings also held every 6 to 8 weeks.
The hours are flexible and we’re happy to discuss these around what you’re looking for to achieve a good balance between home and work but will include a shared weekend rota of 1 in 3 Saturdays, which is kept to routine appointments with no ops.
