You'll enjoy clinical autonomy with occasional sole charge work, always knowing support is close by.

Shreen Vets is an established, family-orientated small animal practice based in Gillingham town centre, serving the surrounding areas for over 30 years. The practice transitioned from traditional mixed animal work to become dedicated entirely to small animals, building deep client relationships and long-term patient care histories. All vets and facilities are housed at a single site, ensuring excellent continuity of treatment and a collaborative working environment.
Part of inspiring vet care (IVC Evidensia), the practice benefits from world-class learning resources and career development opportunities while maintaining its independent, community-focused identity. The modern facilities include digital radiography, ultrasound, flexible endoscopy, capnography and a comprehensive in-house laboratory, supported by an experienced RVN team and an in-house Physiotherapy Certificate Holder.
