About Our Practice: 
We have over 40 years of history providing exceptional veterinary care to small animals. Our newly opened, modern practice is the perfect blend of experience and innovation, offering a state-of-the-art facility and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. We’re an independent practice—this means you’ll be free from corporate pressure and part of a tight-knit, supportive team.

We are busy, with a strong and loyal client base, and pride ourselves on delivering the best care during our busy daytime hours. We offer a mix of scheduled appointments and a morning drop-in surgery where pet owners can bring their animals for quick check-ups, providing you with a variety of cases every day.

Why You Should Join Us:

The Role:
As a Vet Surgeon, you’ll take on a diverse caseload, handling routine consultations, performing minor surgeries, and contributing to the overall well-being of the animals we care for. The day will be a mix of scheduled appointments and the opportunity to treat walk-in patients during our morning surgery. This means you’ll be able to manage a variety of cases and build relationships with clients, all while working in a fun, fast-paced environment.

You’ll have the chance to develop your skills further with a supportive team around you, including 2 other vets, 2 nurses, 3 receptionists, and 3 VCAs. The team works collaboratively to deliver the best outcomes for the animals, ensuring a great working environment for everyone.
