Taverham Vets is a long-established and much-loved part of the local community. Our clients know us well, and many have been bringing their pets to our friendly team for years. We’re now looking for an experienced Veterinary Surgeon to join our branch practice, where you’ll have the chance to build strong client relationships and enjoy a varied caseload. At Taverham Vets, we pride ourselves on being approachable, supportive, and committed to the highest standards of patient care.
A Role with Variety and Independence
This is a great opportunity for a confident vet who enjoys sole charge work. You’ll mainly be caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, and the occasional small furry, supported day to day by a dedicated RVN, ANA, and receptionist. On Fridays, you’ll also be joined by a new graduate vet who’s keen to learn and develop alongside you. The role offers an excellent balance of consultations and surgeries, ensuring no two days feel the same.
A Well-Equipped, Cosy Practice
Our branch practice may be small, but it’s designed with efficiency and comfort in mind. We have a welcoming waiting area with separate spaces for cats and dogs, a large consult room, an x-ray room with dental x-ray facilities, a prep area and theatre, plus separate cat and dog kennels. Our in-house equipment includes portable ultrasound, dental x-ray, and on-site blood and urinalysis machines, giving you everything you need to provide high-quality first opinion care.
Surgery and Special Interests
Operating days are typically filled with routine procedures such as spays, castrates, lump removals, and dentals, all supported by our experienced RVN who also runs nurse clinics. You’ll also carry out BVA KC hip and elbow scoring for the practice. If you have a particular surgical interest, we’d be delighted to support that either within the branch or at our main hospital, where there are additional facilities and opportunities to develop further.
Support from a Wider Network
Although this role is based in our branch, you’ll never feel isolated. The main Taverham Veterinary Hospital is just a 15-minute drive away and offers the support of a large, multi-disciplinary team, including certificate holders in cardiology, diagnostic imaging, small animal medicine, feline medicine, surgery, including orthopaedics, ECC, and dentistry. Referrals to the main site are always an option, giving you access to a wealth of expertise when needed.
Work-Life Balance You Can Count On
We’re offering a full-time position of 40 hours per week, worked across four days. Our weekend commitment working at branch Saturday morning 1:2 or the main Taverham Veterinary Hospital one in four weekends.
