An independently owned small animal veterinary clinic in Clyde is seeking an experienced veterinarian who enjoys solving complex medical cases and practising thoughtful, high-quality medicine.

It offers an environment where curiosity, problem-solving, and a whole-animal approach are genuinely valued.
