Background
This is a superb opportunity for a passionate and experienced Veterinary Surgeon, with a strong background in consults and surgery, to join a very highly regarded Independent veterinary practice.
You will benefit from working alongside a dedicated team of 7 experienced Vet Surgeons, 7 RVNs, 2 Student Nurses and 2 Veterinary Care Assistants. The practice is spacious, with plenty of consult rooms and theatres, modern equipment and slightly longer appointment times of 20 minutes as standard. Work‑life balance and staff happiness are important; no OOH or nights and only 1 in 4 weekends required (just Saturday mornings). The practice prides itself on providing the best quality care to patients and allows longer consult times to spend time with animals. As much as possible is dealt with in‑house, limiting referrals. Career development and progression are encouraged, with support for CPD, certificates and further training. An interest/certificate in exotics is desirable but not essential due to the high caseload of exotics.
