The hospital's third clinic, recently renovated, offers outpatient surgical procedures and consultations. The hospital has achieved gold status from the ISFM Cat Clinic, reflecting their commitment to feline-friendly practices.
The successful candidate needs to have excellent organisational skills and have the ability to keep on top of practice protocols and procedures. You need to be a qualified MRCVS and be registered with the RCVS.
