We have a supportive team of 9 Vets (5 full time, 4 part time), 8 RVNs and 2 SVNs. We are a well-established and friendly team with low staff turnover. Our Clinical Director also was a new graduate at our practice. We have regular social events.
Practice facilities include laparoscopic equipment, rhinoscopy and bronchoscopy, Tonopen, x-ray, ultrasound available at both sites and In house lab machines at both sites.
Step into a supportive start
38 hours per week over a 4 day working week 8:30am – 6:30pm. You will be part of our Saturday rota working 1:4 Saturdays 8:30am – 4:30pm.
We have a well-established and experienced team, who have a lot of experience supporting new graduates. Very minimal sole charge (only on a Saturday) but would not expect this until a minimum of 6 months post-graduation.
