The Role

We are looking to bring in a Veterinary Surgeon to our great cohesive team. Based primarily at the Park branch, you will do a mix of consulting and surgery. You must be confident as there will be periods of sole charge, though there will always be the back-up of another vet at one
of the other sites. Occasionally will need to cover at one of the other branches in time of sickness and holiday. Salary range £35,000 - £44,000 depending on experience.

About Us

We are a group of three practices, proud to be progressive and practice evidence-based medicine. Diverse client base. Usual mod cons, e.g. digital x-ray, new in-house lab machines, endoscopy, cardiac and abdo-minal ultrasound. Young, enthusiastic team with a focus on patient welfare and clinical standards. Whilst we are proud to deliver an excellent 'GP' service, we also encourage team members to develop their interests. We have a wide variety of skills within the group and due to a great team relationship, we enjoy case discussion. Our practices are in a great location - easy access to the New Forest, the South Coast and of course London. The area is home to excellent schools and is a lovely place to set up home.

Currently 6 vets, with a good breadth of knowledge and experience. Two of these came through the IVC new graduate scheme and we are proud to support this. Large number of nurses, both registered and student and an experienced reception/office team.

We would love a candidate that enjoys teaching and sharing cases, but can also work alone and enjoy the challenges that come with this. We need a vet that can form good relationships with clients and isn't afraid to talk about costs - our clients appreciate open and up-front discussions about treatment options.

The group is always open to ideas for team days out and for supporting the community - we are hoping to get back to this now restrictions are lifted. The vets have regular meetings off-site - we will expect you to join in!
