Veterinary Referral Clinician – Internal Medicine

Job Description

Veterinary Referral Clinician – Internal Medicine

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Referral Internal Medicine Clinician to join our team here at Aberdeen Veterinary Referrals.

The Role

The position entails overseeing medicine cases at a referral level, as well as maintaining communication with clients and referring veterinarians. This is a full-time position but part-time will be considered. No OOH.

The Hospital

Aberdeen Veterinary Referrals offers referrals in small animal medicine, soft tissue surgery, orthopaedic surgery, neurology, and spinal surgery, where we see referral cases from across the North East of Scotland. We maintain a close-knit and supportive team dynamic, where collaboration is key. Our referral team comprises Medicine Clinicians and Surgeons, supported by a group of Referral Nurses. Some of our nurses hold certificates ensuring a high standard of care and expertise.

Our Referral Clinic is located within a first opinion practice equipped with the latest veterinary technology, including on-site CT, visiting MRI, and modern surgical and medical equipment, giving our team access to high-quality diagnostic and treatment tools. We are, however, very excited by the plans to expand our services with a new, purpose-built referrals practice which will include new theatres, consultation rooms, and advanced facilities. Our onsite partnership with VetsNow ensures continuous overnight care for our patients, allowing our team to focus on providing top-tier service each day.

To be successful you must have a Certificate in internal medicine and/or be an RCVS Advanced Practitioner status in Small Animal Medicine, with post-certificate experience of managing referred cases.
