Mixed or Small Animal Vet New Grad
Edward River Vet Clinic
Job Description
Vet Position available in a Mixed Clinic, small animal only accepted, new and recent Graduates preferred 😊
The Edward River Vet Clinic is located in Deniliquin NSW, nestled in mixed farming country in the Southern Riverina. With a population of about 8,000 people, Deniliquin provides lots of opportunities.
The Edward River allows for water based activities like fishing and water sports and there is a strong equine community in town with campdrafting and pony club events occurring regularly. There is a strong sporting community in town with an active footy/netball club, a public pool, 3 gyms as well as lots of cafés and pubs, as well as the RSL to enjoy a nice time out.
There is a large farming community surrounding the town with irrigation providing additional water source for growing rice and cereals as well as providing extra fodder for livestock.
The purpose-built clinic is a breeze to work in, with large open work spaces with lots of windows making working inside enjoyable when not on farm calls!
As you walk into the clinic you will be greeted by friendly receptionist in our spacious waiting area full of goodies! Adjoining this is 2 consult rooms (one with a sliding door to outside for anxious pets/post-euthanasia).
As you move into the spacious treatment area, a naturally lit room with 2 new treatment tables and lots of storage and bench space, you will see lots of toys to have fun with including a full suite of Zoetis lab machines including the Abaxis and VS2 for haem and biochem, VS Pro for clotting and the imagyst for in house cytology. We also have a dedicated GA machine in the treatment room for emergencies and wet procedures and have all the gear including a new iM3 dental machine.
Adjoining the treatment room is a radiology room with Radincon X-ray and a great quality ex-hospital ultrasound, a spacious surgery room fitted with all the tools including some orthopaedic gear, a large kennel room and an iso room with self draining parvo cages for easy clean ups for iso patients.
Outside, we have a large outdoor grassed area for large animal work, including an undercover horse crush and stable facilities and outdoor dog kennels.
Our staffing currently includes one vet, two nurses and one receptionist as well as an off premises book keeper. We are a pretty laid back team and like to have fun at work while prioritising patient care.
Our case load is currently 80% smallies and 20% largies but there is more capacity for large animal work if we get another vet. We offer afterhours which is slower in winter but moderate in the summer months.
Generous above award wage on offer including CVE membership and continuing education allowance. 4 day work week on offer, also happy to take on someone part time if that’s what you’re after!
We are very supportive of special interests and happy to pursue these with the right candidate with further education and increasing the services offered at our clinic.
Give us a call if you are interested! 03 4809 7044 or Amy’s personal number is 0439 986 173 or email edwardrivervetclinic@gmail.com. We look forward to hearing from you!
