What our team says:

Here are what some of our existing team say about working at YourVets.

• "Working here at YourVets Nuneaton for the last year has been amazing. The team is friendly and supportive and there is both intrinsic drive from the team to learn and grow and offer more for our patients, from being able to offer laparoscopic surgery to promoting high nurse utilisation and satisfaction. I’ve personally expressed interest in cardiology and ECC which has been enthusiastically supported by the clinical team and management. I’m looking forward to seeing how the practice will grow and feel a head vet with the same ethos would only add to our success"

Throughout this journey, I have been continually supported by senior leadership, the Practice Director, and have had access to abundant leadership training opportunities through CVS’s Knowledge Hub”.
