Help shape the future of Emergency and Critical Care

As a Senior Veterinary Surgeon you will have a variety of responsibilities - for example; working alongside your Vet team to support their clinical development and evaluate their training needs, develop retention strategies, work on clinical development opportunities and consider new ideas to continually improve the clinic.

Vets Now was founded by Richard Dixon, a veterinary surgeon who understood the pressures of being on-call which also trying to maintain a good quality of life.

Today, almost two decades since Richard did his first out-of-hours shift, we’re still just as passionate about emergency and critical care and our clinics are all managed by people who have worked as frontline vets or vet nurses.

In an emergency, pet owners want to know they’ve got the experts on board. And so do we.
