A fantastic opportunity has arisen for an experienced Veterinary Surgeon to join an independent, RCVS accredited, purpose built hospital in the vibrant city of Milton Keynes. Purovets are proud to be working with this long established practice, one of the oldest in the region! The practice continues to thrive across its impressive network of five sites, including a fully equipped hospital, three branches, and a dedicated consult only clinic.
