About Us
Our RCVS accredited small animal training practice in Cornwall, Truro Vets4Pets has an excellent opportunity for a veterinary surgeon to join our inclusive, friendly, and supportive team.
Owner and veterinary surgeon Raul Galvan, qualified from Cordoba in Spain and owner of Truro Vets4Pets since 2018, holds an AVP certificate in surgery with a special interest in orthopaedics and minimally invasive (keyhole) surgery. We are supported by a team of nurses, five client care advisors, a Practice Manager, RVN, and a Mental Health First Aider. The practice has been expanded with a new building and equipment, including separate cat and dog wards and two theatres.
The Role
Our days are structured with 15-minute consults as standard, with 30 minutes for more complicated cases or for graduates. We have one vet operating each day, with consults starting later in the afternoon. There are regular catch-ups to discuss cases and clinical meetings held every 6 to 8 weeks. The hours are flexible and we’re happy to discuss a balance between home and work. A shared weekend rota of 1 in 3 Saturdays is included, which is kept to routine appointments with no operations.
We are looking for a colleague with solid GP experience, who is a team player with strong communication skills and a passion for delivering the highest level of veterinary care.
