You’ll be joining a large and collaborative clinical team, including three night vets, eight day vets, six RVNs, one SVN, two VCAs, and five CCAs. Our team is known for being supportive, experienced, and passionate about patient care, and we pride ourselves on working together to deliver the best possible outcomes.

Our hospital is fully equipped with advanced diagnostic and surgical facilities including digital radiography, dental radiography, multiparameter anaesthetic monitors, endoscopy, bronchoscopy, in-house laboratory equipment, CT scanner, and two dedicated operating theatres. The practice also benefits from a separate cat waiting area, species-specific wards, and an isolation unit to support best-practice infection control. Medivet Faygate is accredited by the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS) as a Small Animal General Practice, and is also an Approved Veterinary Nurse Training Practice and active participant in the Veterinary Graduate Development Programme (VetGDP) — reflecting our strong commitment to professional growth and clinical excellence.

If you’re an experienced Veterinary Surgeon looking for a rewarding role in a well-resourced hospital where collaboration, development, and high standards of care are at the core — we’d love to hear from you.
