You'll join a team of 29 vets including certificate holders in ophthalmology, orthopaedics, soft tissue surgery, and emergency critical care. The group comprises four sites: Whetstone, Glenfield, Saffron Lane, and Scraptoft Lane. While each practice runs independently, the team shares best practices and functions as one cohesive unit.
Park Vet Group was established over 100 years ago and is now a fully RCVS-accredited multi-site practice combining primary care and mid-tier referral services. All four sites are self-sufficient and fully equipped to operate independently, yet the group functions as a unified team sharing expertise and best practices. The practice holds Cat-Friendly Status across all locations and has achieved a Gold Award at the Glenfield site.
