With more than 440 small animal practices across the country, of all shapes and sizes, Vets for Pets is one of the largest UK veterinary groups and offers Veterinary Surgeons a range of opportunities, including the opportunity to run your own practice.

Our practice is a deceptively large stand-alone practice, that has undergone an extension giving us a lovely spacious workspace. With 4 consult rooms, X-Ray room, Isolation wards, separate cat and dog wards, a spacious theatre and a separate room for dirty procedures.
The team consists of 5 Vets, 5 Registered Veterinary Nurses, 1 Student Veterinary Nurse and 2 Student Veterinary Nurses completing placement who are all supported by Practice Manager and 3 Client Care Advisors. We are also lucky enough to have an insurance administrator to help us in the team.
