About the Role
A fantastic opportunity for a motivated and compassionate Veterinary Surgeon to join a friendly, supportive first-opinion team in beautiful Exeter.
This position offers a varied caseload across consults and surgeries, with opportunities to develop your own clinical interests and work alongside an experienced multi-disciplinary team.

The practice is proud to hold ISFM Cat Friendly Clinic accreditations (Bronze to Gold across sites) and RWAF Rabbit Friendly accreditations (Silver and Gold).
You’ll be joining a collaborative, experienced team with multiple certificate holders in surgery, medicine, and imaging, and further qualifications in progress for exotics and surgery.
Visiting specialists support the team in cardiology, ophthalmology, physiotherapy, and behaviour, with strong links to local referral hospitals and regular CPD events.

-
A confident Veterinary Surgeon with at least 2 years’ post-graduate experience in first opinion practice
-
Passionate about delivering high-quality, personalised care
-
Keen to grow your clinical skills, supported by experienced colleagues and referral partnerships
