Unlock your passions at Atherton Veterinary Centre
We are a long established, small animal practice only 20 minutes from Manchester and within an hour of the Lakes and Yorkshire Dales. Driving licence not essential and there are excellent bus and train services within 200m of the door.
We have taken a number of graduates through the graduate scheme over the last few years and all have excelled and developed into excellent GP vets. We are a wonderful team with 6 Veterinary Surgeons, 9 qualified Nurses and our fantastic support staff. We are a Veterinary Nurse Training Practice and have Student Nurses as well as our RVNs. The Nurses work closely with the Vets, and they are extremely capable and supportive. We are a single site practice so there are always at least 2-3 Vets on site.
Our premises has a large car park and our excellent facilities include consulting rooms, 2 theatres, large prep room, imaging room, separate dog/cat/isolation kennels and large vet office. We also have digital radiography, ultrasound, full Idexx lab setup, blood pressure monitoring. We are PSS registered and we hold ISFM Silver award and Rabbit Welfare award.
Hours will be 40 hours per week either on a 4 or 5 day weekday rota to ensure a great work life balance. Our rota is equally shared which means 1:5 Saturdays (no on call, bank holidays or Sundays) and no sole charge.
The graduate will have lots of support from our very experienced Vets and encouraged to follow their cases through with guidance and support. Case discussions are strongly encouraged and there is no sole charge for new graduates. Being a single centre site there will always be more experienced Vets around to support you.
