About us

The Park Vet Group was established over 100 years ago and is now a fully RCVS accredited multi-site, primary care and mid-tier referral practice. With sites in Whetstone, Glenfield, Saffron Lane & Scraptoft Lane, all our practices are self-sufficient and fully equipped to run independently, but we like to share best practices and work as a big team.

We are seeking a confident primary care Vet to join our Glenfield Tier 3 RCVS accredited Hospital.

Your role and responsibilities

The role involves consulting and operating in equal measure as part of the day team at the Glenfield Hospital. We offer fantastic referral, OOH, and advanced services, but we equally champion our primary care vets and the fantastic service we offer for routine and first opinion caseloads.

As a team, we often discuss clinical cases and have monthly team meetings to share knowledge and communications. We welcome supporting certificate studies for our associates; if you have a particular interest, you are welcome to discuss it with us!
