Copeland Vets are on the lookout for a Small Animal Veterinary Surgeon to join the team.

About the Practice

Copeland Vets is a purpose-built practice in Ingelby Barwick, located close to airports and railway stations, but also close to the beautiful Cleveland Hills for exploring the countryside on our doorstep.

The practice has ample parking on site for clients and staff, making this practice popular with the local people, close to the shops and local supermarket.

We have a separate theatre and dental suite, digital x-ray including dental, we offer Laparoscopic spays, and have a new endoscopy, plus the usual in-house Lab. Separate kennels and cattery with nurse led clinics encouraged.

About the Team

A team of 4 Vets and 4 Nurses, a VCA and a very experienced reception team awaits a new member to join the team.
