Veterinary Surgeon

Our Group

At Pet Practice we are an exciting, independent, growing veterinary group that’s been giving a fresh look to working in the veterinary sector for the past fifteen years now. We are not a corporate focused on profit to the detriment of its clients and staff. With thirteen practices neither are we a small independent at risk from competition or takeover. We have the security of being a sizeable veterinary group but with the benefits and personal touch of being family owned.

Independent is what we love and how we will remain. We do not lock our staff into working for us under the premise of joint venture and other hidden restrictions. At Pet Practice we lead the way in the packages we offer our staff and are proud that all the income we earn as a team is invested back into our staff and the facilities they work in.

We’ve led the way in the salaries we offer, led the way in the holiday our nurses and vets can take at up to six weeks per annum and schedule major refits on all our clinics every ten years to keep them fresh. Whilst an ongoing schedule of investment is of paramount importance to us we continue to grow alongside this adding new practices to the group.

Our staff’s loyalty is built around mutual respect and working with your requirements to create a job role that is right for you. No on-call and flexible rotas ensure your work life balance leaves you fresh and enthusiastic. Hear what our staff have to say by having a read on our website recruitment page.

Our Bournemouth and Christchurch surgeries are on the beautiful Dorset Blue Flag coastline and work very closely together. They have all the facilities you would expect of a modern purpose built practice including digital radiography, dental radiography, ultrasonography and Idexxin-house integrated laboratories. There are dedicated surgical facilities for both our use and that of our visiting ophthalmology / soft tissue / orthopaedic surgeons.

One of our much loved vets Alfonso is returning to Spain. As a result we need a dynamic vet with at least two years experience to come on board and join our team. They will be supported by our on site clinicians as well as the wider 25 vets and 100 staff we have across the group. We really do all act as a team, something we’re proud of.
