Our client is seeking a Mixed Veterinary Surgeon to join a long-standing independent practice serving its community for over 140 years.
Based in a brand-new purpose-built facility, this role offers the opportunity to practice true James Herriot-style veterinary medicine, working closely with a loyal rural client base across small animals, equine, and farm patients.
This position would suit a vet with around 2+ years’ experience, although confidence, initiative, and a genuine desire to build relationships with clients are equally important.
