Exciting RVN opportunity

Our awesome nursing team work alongside our 12-vet team. We have certificate holders in dentistry and medicine, as well as vets who are working towards certificates in imaging and dermatology. In addition, there is a visiting orthopaedic surgeon, ensuring a varied caseload.
We care about all pets and have strong ties to local and national charities. Additionally, we have several accreditations including 'Dogs Trust Dog Friendly' Clinic and 'Fear Free Clinic' and are working towards gaining 'Cat Friendly Clinic' accreditation across all four sites.
We pride ourselves on staff retention and offer a kind, friendly and supportive workplace atmosphere. We were recently awarded 'Outstanding' accreditation in the RCVS PSS in 'Team and Professional Responsibility' and 'Client Service' awards.
We invest heavily in our team and equipment, so that we can offer a high standard of care to our patients.
