Norwich Regional Animal Hospital is looking for a compassionate and engaged Veterinary Technician to join our small but mighty team.
We are a one-vet small animal general practice with a diverse clientele. We balance our schedule so that not only are we never double-booked, but we also have room to see urgent cases (both our clients' and others'). We have two exam rooms, a treatment room, a lab, a surgery suite, and an X-ray.
This is a place where we are truly a team. Collaboration is the name of the game, and we make sure that all staff get what they need while also taking care of clients.

Every day is a new set of clients and a new adventure where you can dig into your vet tech knowledge without feeling overwhelmed.
