Our Vet whom we are replacing is relocating, here is what she has to say: I joined Alnorthumbria two years ago and felt very welcomed as a new graduate and have continued to develop my skills after finishing my GDP. There is a varied case load of both surgical and medical cases and opportunities to get involved with OOH and emergencies. Alnorthumbria Morpeth is a supportive practice with a lovely team of both vets and nurses. There is a nice client base from a range of farming and city backgrounds and opportunities to develop close relationships and client continuity. The opportunity to complete the CVS new graduate programme of tailored CPD further developed my skills and has assisted my development as a vet.
As a Vet within our Group at Alnorthumbria, there is the opportunity to progress in whatever field interests you supported by certificate holders in orthopaedics, dermatology and ECC. Certificates are encouraged and funded. We are a nurse training practice and have a strong team of nurses many of which have or are working towards certificates.
Our own dedicated out of hours night team means no night work. Shared rota of weekend days and Saturday mornings with days back during the week. This allows plenty of time to enjoy the nearby coasts and hills that Northumberland has to offer.
