Overview
Medivet Roehampton Veterinary Clinic serves a loyal client base from across London, including Putney Heath, Wimbledon, and the surrounding areas. We’re offering a veterinary surgeon position within a welcoming, experienced team with strong hospital support.
The Roehampton team is supported by an experienced Head RVN and clinical coach, SVNs across the region, and front-of-house professionals who focus on patient care and client service. The practice prioritises patient wellbeing, client satisfaction, and team wellbeing in a collaborative, modern facility with a state-of-the-art theatre and advanced surgical and diagnostic equipment.
We manage a varied caseload with clinical support from our flagship Richmond 24-Hour Hospital and Kingston branch when needed, enabling the team to handle complex cases while maintaining continuity of care. This role suits a veterinarian with 2+ years of experience seeking a supportive environment, a varied caseload, and space to grow clinically. Certification and/or strong surgical experience is advantageous but not essential; for the right candidate, including those with surgical certification, we offer a competitive salary upwards of £75,000–£80,000 per annum.
