Work that matters

As a Veterinary Clinician, you’ll provide high-quality GP care to small animal patients, with opportunities to be involved in Emergency & Critical Care (ECC). No two days will be the same as you work alongside experienced specialists to manage a diverse range of cases and deliver evidence-based patient care.

Working in a teaching hospital means we offer you more than a clinical role. You will have the opportunity to provide real-world learning experiences for veterinary students, helping them develop the skills and knowledge to become confident, capable veterinarians. Longer consultation times allows you time to thoroughly investigate complex cases, collaborate with specialist teams and deliver excellent clinical outcomes.

Part of a broader multidisciplinary hospital, we offer Small Animal, Large Animal and Pathology services, with specialist expertise across Orthopaedics, Oncology, Anaesthesia, ECC and General Practice. You’ll have access to advanced diagnostic equipment including ultrasound, X-ray and CT, a dedicated radiographer and an on-site Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory.
