Step into a role where clinical freedom, cutting-edge facilities, and genuine team support come together seamlessly. At Medivet Ashton 24 Hour, we’re offering an opportunity for a confident Veterinary Surgeon to thrive in a progressive, well-equipped environment—without the burden of out-of-hours work.
This is a full-time position working 40 hours across four days, typically 9am–7pm, giving you a consistent structure and genuine work-life balance. You’ll take part in just 1 in 6 weekends and a fair share of bank holidays, supported by a dedicated night team who ensure seamless patient care outside of your hours. Part time applications are also welcome.
You’ll be joining a thriving 5-vet team, including a hands-on Partner and a surgical certificate holder. While you’ll have access to that experience and collaboration, this role also offers the opportunity for sole charge, making it ideal for a confident, experienced all-rounder who enjoys autonomy and ownership of their cases.
Our Ashton 24 Hour practice is designed to enable you to do your best work. With four consult rooms, two theatres, separate dog and cat wards, a fully equipped in-house lab, digital and dental x-ray, modern ultrasound, and laparoscopic equipment, you’ll have everything you need to work cases up to a high standard.
If you’re looking for a role where you can combine independence with support, and clinical variety with a sustainable rota, this is an opportunity not to be missed.
