You’ll find us opposite the award-winning Parsons Green (internationally recognised as a lovely and beautifully maintained park!). There is great coffee across the road from the clinic and plenty of places to eat and grab lunch.
We take pride in our collaborative approach and have created clinical communities where vets and nurses with a shared interest connect and collaborate on a regular basis.
To support you in your role, we also offer various nurse consult training and internal CPD including building your confidence, our Nutritional Ambassador Programme, or developing your consulting skills.
