Hamstone Vets is seeking an experienced Veterinary Surgeon to join its independent small animal practice in Crewkerne. This is a full-time position with a rota that can be shaped around either a 4-day week working 8.30am to 6.30pm or five shorter days.
The out-of-hours rota is limited to one weeknight each week and one weekend in six, with Saturday consults from 9am to 12pm. You will be on call from home and attend the practice only when needed, with an RVN also on call to help with inpatient care. After a weekend on call, the following Friday is given back in lieu.

Facilities include digital radiography, a dental suite, an in-house laboratory, a modern surgical theatre with laparoscopy, separate dog and cat waiting areas and wards, and five consult rooms with expansion into seven planned. The practice is also an ISFM Gold Cat-Friendly Practice and is exploring endoscopy equipment.
