Full or Part Time Veterinary Surgeon Vacancy, Sutton London

Are you an experienced Veterinary Surgeon looking for your next career move? I'm excited to offer a full time opportunity at a multiple award winning, 100% small animal practice located in South London. The recently refurbished hospital offers outstanding facilities, including dedicated ultrasound, X ray, and dentistry suites, as well as two large operating theatres. As a single site hospital they have been carefully designed with patient comfort in mind, featuring separate dog and cat waiting areas and wards.

They are proud recipients of the Investors in the Environment Bronze Award 2024, reflecting a commitment to sustainability alongside clinical excellence. Inpatients benefit from onsite out of hours care provided by Vets Now, allowing complex and interesting cases to be managed in house without patient transfers.

There is no out of hours or bank holiday working and the rota includes three early finishes each week, giving you more personal time. Weekend commitments are infrequent - just one in eight weekends and one in eight Saturdays - supported by generous time off in lieu. Consultations are 15 minutes long, with protected admin time and regular breaks built into the schedule.

The practice is close to Wimbledon, Twickenham, Epsom Downs, Box Hill, and the Surrey countryside, making it ideal for sports lovers, cyclists, and walkers. It also offers excellent transport links to Central London via trains, the Underground, and 24 hour night buses. The area is highly family friendly, with excellent schools, healthcare options, and nearby attractions such as Chessington World of Adventures, Hampton Court Palace, and Brooklands Museum.

You will join a supportive and collaborative team that includes multiple certificate holders in medicine, surgery, and ophthalmology. The culture encourages knowledge sharing through daily inpatient rounds and regular case discussions, supported by a highly skilled team of nurses, care assistants, and client care professionals.

The ideal candidate will have at least one year of post qualification experience in small animal practice, be confident in medical, imaging, and surgical skills, and thrive in a team environment. A warm, compassionate, and proactive approach to patient and client care is essential.

Working pattern includes a mix of early shifts from 7:30 am to 3:30 pm or 8 am to 4 pm, and late shifts from 10 am to 8 pm. Weekend work is limited to one in eight weekends, with Saturdays from 8 am to 4 pm and Sundays from 10 am to 2 pm. There are no out of hours or bank holiday shifts - these are fully covered onsite by Vets Now.
