Chapelfield Veterinary Partnership, Long Stratton, East of England
Discipline: Small Animal

Salary: up to £50,000 DOE, Welcome Bonus up to £5,000 plus Relocation Allowance up to £3,000
We are looking for a small animal veterinary surgeon to join our friendly, supportive, well-equipped, experienced team in a lovely location in Norfolk. We would ideally like to employ a colleague with some experience, but with a lot of experienced clinicians in the team, we are able to support less experienced vets within this role. We have an experienced nursing team and are also training nurses within the practice. We have two qualified GDP clinicians within the team.
We have great facilities and equipment, including dental radiography and ultrasound. The building is purpose-built with excellent surgical facilities and bright consult rooms. The clinic is part of a group of practices and is located in a nice village with good transport links and lovely rural surroundings, with good links to Norwich, which is a great city to live in.
Why Join Chapelfield?
You'll be joining an incredible team of 22 small animal Veterinary Surgeons, 20 Registered Veterinary Nurses, and a dedicated Support Team. Our team includes certificate holders in areas like surgery, orthopedics, ultrasonography, medicine, and dermatology. We proudly support both local and national charities, including the Dogs Trust centre at Snetterton. If you’re ready to advance your career in a supportive, dynamic environment, we’d love to hear from you!
