We are looking for an experienced charismatic veterinary surgeon, to work as part of our amazing, dedicated, passionate team. Our team, based across three branches and state of the art Veterinary Hospital, serve the local population of Exeter, aiming to provide an exceptional service that sets us apart from other practices. We encourage and promote gold standard preventative healthcare and case workup, supported with the highest standard of medical and surgical treatment. We continue to evolve and invest in the latest equipment and high calibre staff in order to maintain our status as a leading independent veterinary practice in the South West. We would be particularly interested in a medicine or imaging certificate holder.

The role is based on a four or four and a half day week (your choice), with just less than one night in seven on call and 1:8 long weekends and 1:8 short weekends. You will be supported by an experienced, happy and dedicated team of nurses and a committed team of experienced vets, several with their areas of expertise - cardiology and small mammal Diplomates and Certificate holders in Zoo Medicine (Exotics), Ophthalmology and Surgery. In house physiotherapy, behavioural and bereavement experts also on hand. Your professional development, including study towards a certificate, will be fully encouraged and supported.

You will receive a comprehensive range of benefits including:

  • 24 days holiday plus bank holidays
  • Funded CPD up to £1000 - more for study towards a certificate - with terms
  • RCVS annual fees paid and other selected memberships
  • Pension scheme
  • Staff discount scheme

Company

The surgeries are conveniently located across the City of Exeter in Heavitree, Alphington, St Thomas, and Whipton.  

Our four surgeries are Royal College accredited and fully equipped for all routine medical and surgical procedures. Our surgery at 101 Buddle Lane in St Thomas also serves as our specialist internal referral surgery, being staffed by highly experienced vets and supported by ‘consultant’ vets qualified in a speciality. This surgery is equipped with a comprehensive practice laboratory and the latest state of the art imaging, monitoring, diagnostic and surgical equipment. Intensive care and 24 hour monitoring of very sick animals is available when necessary.

We have very experienced vets in house with the support of our consultant specialists in Cardiology (Hearts), Ophthalmology (Eyes), Imaging (Ultrasound, X-ray and MRI) and Acupuncture and our own veterinary Physiotherapist/rehabilitation expert. We are therefore very well staffed and equipped to expertly deal the diagnosis and treatment of a wide range of the more complex medical and surgical disorders and emergencies, as well as the routine cuts, sore ears, itchy skins etc.

CityVets is a privately owned practice, so we retain a personal touch and aim to foster a lifelong, close, friendly, professional relationship with discerning clients who appreciate a top class service that represents true value for money. We are not target driven or constrained or dictated to by large corporate management or too small to be able to justify the expense of the best up to date specialist equipment and the employment of consultant specialists. We are also the first practice in Exeter to host our own very competitively priced online petshop superstore.
