Do you want access to advanced surgical procedures, world-class rehabilitation services, and the latest technology—all while maintaining work-life balance?
If this sounds like the opportunity you’ve been searching for, The Vet Lounge Upper Coomera is the place for you. As one of the Gold Coast’s most advanced veterinary hospitals, we are committed to delivering exceptional patient care.
NB: While full-time hours are preferred, we’re open to a part-time arrangement for the right candidate.
Why The Vet Lounge Stands Out
A Purpose-Built, Leading-Edge Facility
- One of the largest and most advanced veterinary hospitals on the Gold Coast, designed for excellence in patient care
- One of the few practices on the Gold Coast offering Laparoscopic surgery, providing minimally invasive options for better patient outcomes
- Gold Coast’s ONLY purpose-built Canine Rehabilitation Centre, home to one of the few Certified Canine Rehabilitation Practitioners in SE QLD! We offer manual therapy, laser therapy, an underwater treadmill, and tailored at-home exercise programs for optimal recovery and mobility.
- Luxury dog & cat boarding with dedicated staff ensuring five-star care
- On-site Ophthalmology & Dermatology Specialists three days a week, giving our vets direct access to expert insights and collaboration
Advanced Surgical & Diagnostic Capabilities
- Laparoscopic surgery, & an in-house advanced surgeon performing TPLOs, BOAS, Gastropexy & more
- Two dedicated surgical theatres for streamlined efficiency
- Fully equipped dental suite with X-ray, ensuring comprehensive dental care
- We can also offer Endoscopy, Ultrasound, Laser therapy, Digital X-ray & full in-house lab with Imagyst
Support for Our Vet team
- Dedicated consulting nurses to handle estimates, client education & surgery bookings—so you can focus on medicine
- In-house software with diagrams & videos to enhance client understanding
- AI-assisted history writing, making consults more efficient
- Access to VIN, CVE Webinars, Proskills CE courses, and an online dental training program with industry leaders Tony Caiafa & Sam Bowden.
Work-Life Balance & Career Growth
- No after-hours work & closed Sundays & public holidays
- Last consult on weekdays at 5:20pm, allowing you to wrap up stress-free and leave right on time at 6pm
- Two 20-minute breaks to recharge or catch up, plus a 30-minute post-lunch break for research, follow-ups, or admin
- Emergency after-care is just 10 minutes away, so you're never left handling emergency cases after hours. However, if you're looking to boost your earnings, we offer generous bonuses for after-hours treatments. Prefer to head home on time? You can refer the patient – it’s completely up to you—your choice, your balance
- Guaranteed lunch breaks & a dedicated staff room because we value your well-being
- Annual career development reviews tailored to your goals
A Team You’ll Be Proud to Work With
- We have a strong reputation on the Gold Coast, trusted by both the community and professionals within the veterinary industry
- Highly skilled, experienced nurses who elevate the level of care we provide
- A culture of excellence and genuine team spirit—our staff love working here! In the past two years, five team members have taken long service leave, with three more soon to qualify, a true testament to our supportive and rewarding workplace. We take immense pride in the culture we’ve built and are deeply grateful for every member of our team
- All three of our locations are family-owned and family-friendly
Generous Salary & Rewarding Benefits
We believe in fair and rewarding compensation, ensuring your salary reflects your skills, experience, and contributions to our team.
