Dovecote Veterinary Hospital, Castle Donington

Up to £65,000 FTE (pro rata) | Flexible Weekend Commitment | Saturdays & Sundays, 8am–7pm | Referral Hospital Support

Looking for the excitement and variety of ECC work with the support, facilities and expertise of a specialist referral hospital?

CVS24 at Dovecote Veterinary Hospital is seeking a Veterinary Surgeon to join our weekend emergency and urgent care team. Whether you're looking for a regular commitment, additional ECC work alongside another role, or a flexible portfolio career, we can tailor the rota to suit you.

This is an opportunity to work within a busy multidisciplinary hospital, managing a rewarding emergency caseload while benefiting from advanced diagnostics, specialist support and an exceptional nursing team.

Why Choose CVS24?

No two shifts are the same.

Our weekend vets manage a diverse and rewarding caseload including:

• Medical emergencies

Working within Dovecote Veterinary Hospital gives you access to:

• Advanced imaging including CT and MRI

• A collaborative hospital environment focused on excellent patient care

Referral Support When You Need It

• Neurology and Neurosurgery
• Soft Tissue Surgery
• Orthopaedic Surgery
• Diagnostic Imaging

Whether you're managing a challenging neurological emergency, a complex fracture, a surgical emergency or an unusual medical case, specialist expertise is close at hand.

This unique environment allows you to work independently whilst having referral-level support available whenever needed, helping you grow your confidence and clinical skills.
