The cats are never anywhere near any dogs and there are plenty of cat castles, roomy kennels and lots of Pet Remedy’ ‘We use multi-modal analgesia with pain scores. We even use local anaesthetic for our neutering's as standard.’ ‘We treat every patient as if they are our own and we are all on the same page, we use freeze spray or emla for blood and cannulas to make it as easy as possible for our patients. ‘Our standard of care is on a referral centre level, but we are a close knit team with a family feel and no out of hours’ If you would like to apply for the role or for an informal chat to discuss it further, please get in touch with our Senior Talent Acquisition Specialist
