No out-of-hours duties. OOH cover provided by nearby PetMedics Veterinary Hospital.
This is a 12-month fixed-term opportunity for a small animal veterinary surgeon at Yew Tree Vets in Withington, South Manchester. You'll work 31.25 hours across three days per week, with no out-of-hours duties, no Sundays, and no bank holidays. If a different pattern suits you better, the practice is open to discussion.

The newly refurbished clinic is fully equipped with modern facilities and serves a varied, engaging caseload.
