Job Details

The Role

We are looking for a veterinary surgeon to join our 1st opinion team. Your time will be split between seeing small animal consultations, performing elective and emergency surgery and assisting with the management of our hospital inpatients. Depending upon the level of experience with emergency work, you will either have a fully supported role as part of our twilight team working alongside an experienced ECC clinician as part of the Norwich Night Vet Emergency service or you may be included in the full night team rota. You will also provide a supportive role in assisting with our growing certificate level referral work.

About Us

We are an established 1st opinion, referral and dedicated OOH ECC RCVS accredited hospital in Norwich. We have a purpose built award winning building and our current vets hold certificates in ECC, cardiology, orthopaedics, dermatology, endoscopy, ophthalmology, medicine and diagnostic imaging. We have an intern training program, orthopaedic training program and an exciting extension in the planning.

Weekly clinical meetings and morning rounds make for a stimulating and supportive environment. This is backed up by a comprehensive lab, shiny new Storz rigid and flexible endoscopy kit, hydrotherapy/physio suite, DR digital x-ray, dental x-ray, Vivid 7/Mylab ultrasounds, laparoscopic equipment and a full range of orthopaedic equipment. CT is on its way too!

Applicant Requirements

The successful applicant will ideally have experience which includes some emergency work and be competent in routine neutering surgery. Above all, you must be enthusiastic to learn and dedicated to providing an exceptional level of care for our clients and patients. If you want a lively stimulating atmosphere with plenty of interesting work combined with lots of time to rest to enjoy the wonders of Norfolk then please get in touch!

Company

At Taverham Vets we have a large team of Staff that are dedicated to the care of animals. From our highly qualified directors and associate vets through to our reception and nursing staff the Taverham Teams’ individual skills combine to form a cohesive, productive and caring unit. Every one of our team has a vital role to play in the smooth operation of a busy veterinary practice.

Taverham Veterinary Practice was founded in March 1994 by local boy Roger Bannock at our old site on Fakenham Road (where he was born!) with a staff of just 3. Roger was joined by his friend from University and fellow partner Guy Pitcher 18 months later. Rapid expansion led to two extensions being added on to the surgery before it was again too small to fit us all in.

In January 2007 the practice moved to our new “state of the art” purpose-built surgery on Fir Covert Road opposite the Taverham Garden Centre. The practice now boasts facilities that rival any in East Anglia: an attractive, light and airy architect-designed building of over 600 square metres, with extensive car parking and sympathetic landscaping.
