Veterinary Surgeon

The Role
An exciting opportunity for a compassionate small animal Veterinary Surgeon to join our team, where teamwork and excellence in clinical care are high on the agenda.

We include RCVS, VDS and BVA membership in the package.

About Us
Located in Pembrokeshire, surrounded by stunning beaches and countryside, we are a rural practice who prides ourselves on a first class small animal service, practising excellent medicine with great clients. With the usual clinical equipment we enjoy working up our own cases and providing ongoing care. Our caseload is interesting and varied, with a bias towards dogs, but plenty of cats, some small furries and the occasional exotic or bird. We do all of our own surgery including orthopaedics (including TTA), and have aquatic treadmill therapy for post-op rehabilitation and care of our ‘oldies’.

We are a friendly and experienced team of vets and colleagues who can provide support to develop your skills, whilst working in a busy practice, with encouragement and flexibility to find your clinical pathway. Our vet and nursing teams span all ages and experiences, and we are very lucky to have several highly experienced members of the team, many of whom have been with us long-term.

Applicant Requirements
We welcome applications for Veterinary Surgeons with all levels of experience including recent graduates. We encourage and fund CPD and the development of clinical interests. Certificate level study is encouraged, and for new grads we offer the Graduate Academy, including coaching, mentoring and relevant CPD.
