Then look no further, we have an exciting opportunity for a vet with a minimum of 12 months experience to join a very forward-thinking practice situated within 15 minute of Newcastle city centre. The successful applicant will have access to excellent equipment including orthopaedic kit, IDEXX, electrocautery, digital X-ray, dental X-ray, not to mention the referral standard ultrasonography equipment recently invested in. You will also get to work alongside a team of very friendly and highly experienced colleagues with the existing vets having interests ranging from orthopaedic surgery to internal medicine.
