Great Opportunity for a Veterinary Surgeon to join a wonderful group of practices in Cambridgeshire!
Your role at Cromwell Vets will be varied, including a good mixture of consultations and surgeries. We have a fantastic hospital site in Huntingdon, with its own dedicated night team, and 5 smaller clinics in the local area: St Neots, Sawtry, Cambourne, Ramsey, and St Ives.

We offer hydrotherapy, laser therapy, and a range of treatments.
We are looking for a small animal Vet who is happy to work both as part of a multi-vet team and in sole charge. We are open to discussions about consulting-only positions and various working patterns across the sites.

Many of our clinical team hold certificates in medicine, surgery, cardiology, dermatology, and diagnostic imaging, with advanced practitioners in medicine and surgery. We are always keen to support professional development and certificates where possible.

About Us
Cromwell Vets is a busy 24-hour first opinion small animal hospital with 5 branch surgeries and a state-of-the-art rehabilitation centre. Our practice has been caring for pets for over 100 years, and we pride ourselves on providing gold standard veterinary medicine. Our tier 3 hospital has excellent facilities and equipment and hosts our dedicated out-of-hours service.
We have a fantastic, experienced, and friendly clinical team with many certificate holders, and we support and encourage CPD (including certificate study). We have all the equipment available to enable full workup of cases in-house – digital radiography, ultrasound (including separate cardiac probe and doppler), video-endoscopy (gastroscope, bronchoscope, and small rigid endoscopes), multi-parameter anaesthetic monitoring, tonometry, etc. We have just opened a new wing at our hospital with a state-of-the-art operating theatre, treatment rooms, and a calm and spacious cat ward. We are also very proud of The Cromwell ARC – a purpose-built physiotherapy and hydrotherapy unit with an aquatic treadmill and K-Laser, run by our two qualified physiotherapists.
We are very fortunate that many of our staff have been part of ‘The Cromwell Family’ for many years, and as a team, we are very caring and supportive of one another. Wellbeing is top of the agenda and important to us all – we champion a better work-life balance and are avid supporters of the WellVet Initiative.
We enjoy being part of our communities and attending local events to run fun dog shows raising money each year for our chosen charity and encouraging team members to take part. Cromwell Vets also holds regular social events, including summer events, impromptu lunchtime barbeques, and the famous annual Christmas party.
