Job Description

Bilton Veterinary Centre is seeking a dedicated and motivated Veterinary Surgeon to join our experienced and friendly team. This is an excellent opportunity to be part of an established and well-respected small animal practice in the heart of Warwickshire.


Discover a diversity of caseload and experience


We are a large single site practice specialising in small animals.  While we mainly see cats and dogs we also see our share of rabbits, ferrets, guinea pigs, even the odd tortoise.  


Whilst you would spend the majority of your time in consultations there is at least one day dedicated to surgery per week however, we do have ops blocks for emergency admits.  Whilst our surgeries mainly consist of usual procedures we also see brachy surgery, ex laps, orthopaedics, PTA’s, lump removals, opthamology, nasal surgeries, alongside any emergencies that are admitted.  Whilst we do have the ability to refer if needed the majority of surgeries are completed on site.  


A Practice Where You Can Thrive


Our spacious practice includes five consulting rooms, a large main waiting area and a specific waiting room for cats. We also have separate cat kennels, separate large dog kennels and even a separate small furry ward too. There are two dedicated sterile theatres, and two dental/dirty stations within our practice. 


Along with the usual equipment, we have also invested in: Digital AGFA Radiography New IMS Digital Dental Radiography ESOATE MyLab Ultrasound with Cardiac probes and full-colour Doppler Tonopen Ocular Tonometry and SlitLamp IDEXX Catalyst Biochemistry and Procyte Haematology ECG machine and IMEC multiparameter monitors Four Humphrey ADE Anaesthetic Circuits Gima Electrosurgical Unit.  We will also shortly be getting a new dental xray processor.
