Veterinary Surgeon - Small Animal - FTC

Opportunity

An excellent opportunity has arisen for a Veterinary Surgeon to join our team here at Woodland Veterinary Centre, Midhurst on a Fixed Term Contract (Maternity Cover).

Our main site is based in Midhurst and we have three smaller branches within a 9 mile radius. We are situated in the beautiful South Downs, a stone throws away from the coast and London, giving the best of both worlds. We are an hour from both Heathrow and Gatwick Airport allowing for close transport links to Europe and beyond.

State‑of‑art equipment includes digital x‑ray, dental x‑ray, a multiparameter anaesthetic monitoring machine, blood pressure doppler, microscope, in‑house biochemistry and haematology blood machines, ultrasound with cardiac and abdominal probe, laser, ECG, endoscope and tonometer. The main branch has recently had its kennels refurbished, providing separate dog and cat wards.

This is a Full Time or Part Time position with flexibility over working days/hours offering you a combination of main site and branch work – the split can be discussed. There will be a mixture of consulting and surgery with some sole charge. Typical shifts are either 8am‑6pm, 8.30am‑6.30pm or 9am‑7pm with no OOH. Saturdays mornings are on a rota of 1:5.

We have 15‑minute consultations for routine appointments and 30‑minute consultations for more complex cases to enable a clinical workup to be performed.

We have an amazing team of 7 Vets, 7 RVNs, 3 SVNs, 2 VCAs, and receptionists all working together to achieve an excellent standard of care. We encourage our vets to pursue their passions in whatever form. We are well established in the community and look after the residents of a local Cats Protection Adoption Centre.
