We are a privately owned, RCVS accredited, independent practice seeking an additional experienced small animal vet to join the team at our practice in Syston.
As part of our continued growth we are seeking an additional experienced veterinary surgeon to join the team at Syston where we have recently achieved general practice status through the RCVS practice standards scheme.
Certificates are encouraged and fully funded as our clients would much prefer an increase in our internal expertise.
As a practice we strive to combine the provision of exceptional, bespoke care with progressive current best practice in veterinary medicine. Our clinical club meetings are a great way to discuss cases and exchange ideas, and we hold additional in-house CPD days for the whole team to continually improve and advance our standards. We are also members of the XLVets community, collaborating with other likeminded independent practices; sharing knowledge, ideas and skills.
We offer a four-day week as a good work-life balance is essential to maintain the high demands of veterinary life. The diary is always adjusted to make way for important appointments, family events and emergencies.
We take pride in caring for our own patients out of hours. Our experienced, dedicated night nurse team ensure we offer 24-hour on-site care, as well as taking the out of hours phone calls. Our veterinary surgeons take part in an equally shared rota, maximum of 1:5 though currently 1:9. Following a weekend on call, vets are entitled to the Monday off as well as an additional half day in the week. Vets also have the option of changing their usual day off to the Friday in the preceding week to allow for a long weekend, which is very popular among the team! Any weeknight on call shifts are followed by a half day off in the week!
