Ready to join a thriving independent practice where a 4-day week, zero out-of-hours, and genuine work-life balance aren't perks, they're the norm? Broadway Veterinary Group is looking for a vet who values both excellent clinical practice and time to actually live.
No overnight on-call or night shifts required. 1 in 4 Saturday mornings only, with time off in lieu. Emergency care provided by separate on-site company.
