Here's what the team have to say about Wolstanton
In 2012 I was lucky enough to be offered a full time RVN position here at WX vets in Wolstanton. I am proud to be able to say I was part of the practice set up from our very first day when we opened the doors on 15th October 2012! Since then i have seen the practice grow into what it is today, a thriving 3 vet practice which I feel has become a real hub of the Wolstanton Community! During my time my role has progressed from RVN to a Head Nurse role – which I love! When I get asked about why I have stayed, my response is simple – I love the practice, the clients and their pets and the team I have the pleasure of working with every single day. Our USP is definitely the team we call Wolstanton and the love I see we all share for the pets we see every day who come to visit us at the practice. I can say with complete honesty – the White Cross Group are the best employers I have ever worked for –I feel genuine care from my manager, I get to have my Birthday day off and even Easter eggs for my children are delivered from head office - it’s definitely the little things like this which make a big difference for me. It’s also important I remain true to myself and work with values which I agree with - I love the White Cross values of honesty and integrity as i feel they allow me to stay true to myself every single day I come to work. Simply, I enjoy coming to work every day and that’s hard to find. Jodie – Head RVN
