About the role

We're a diverse team so depending on your own individual style, our consult times vary and breaks, and an hour lunch break are always included in the day.

You will need to be RCVS registered, ideally with strong clinical skills and a surgical bias although we are also open to considering new graduates for our ever-growing practice.

Most of all we're looking for a team player, a people person and someone committed to delivering outstanding care and customer service.
