Working in an emergency setting, will sharpen and develop your veterinary skills. We invest heavily in the continuous professional development of all our people, and, as a Vet Surgeon you will have access to professional qualifications and our AdvantEdge programme, progression opportunities, and on-going coaching.

Now for innovation

Our AdvantEdge programme includes a one-week hands-on practical training, followed by 20 hours of flexible case-based e-learning completed at your pace. This blended approach is designed to help you start your career at Vets Now with confidence.
