Description

Veterinary Surgeon - part time - only 1 in 4 Saturday mornings - collaborative, welcoming team in Cornwall

Are you a small animal vet keen to develop your skills within a growing practice, whilst also working in the beautiful county of Cornwall?

About Us

The practice is run locally by Raul who in turn is supported by a team of 3 additional vets as well as a very supportive and experienced nurse team with over 50 years' experience between them, our longstanding and experienced practice manager Tracey and a brilliant team of client care advisors.

Raul qualified from Cordoba in Spain before moving to the UK in 2007 and becoming the owner of Camborne Vets4Pets in 2016. Raul holds an AVP certificate in surgery, with special interest in orthopaedics and minimally invasive (keyhole) surgery so there's always plenty of opportunity to learn and develop your own skills, which we fully encourage and support.

Your work environment

Set in a central location to local amenities, transport routes and much more, the practice benefits from having its own parking as well as being a spacious, well set out environment, purpose built to deliver the highest clinical standards. The facilities are excellent, giving you access to all the equipment you need to care for your patients.

We already have a loyal client base with the potential for further growth, and cases can be worked up locally giving you the opportunity to develop any specific interests you have, with certification encouraged and fully funded.

Your average day

We see a variety of cases and you'll own your own caseload with the freedom to investigate, with lots of support from the rest of the team. Consults are given 15 minutes as standard, unless we're quieter or more time is needed when we can book 30 minutes instead. There's always time to catch up on admin throughout the day, time for a lunch break and regular clinical meetings too.

As a growing team, this position is full time 2-3 days a week allowing you to achieve a good balance between home and work, with no OOH and a shared Saturday rota of just 1 in 4 Saturdays 9am-12.30pm.
