Registered Veterinary Nurse – Dudley

My client is a modern first opinion small animal practice with two branches, dedicated to providing excellent care to their patients. They pride themselves on having a multicultural team with a wide range of experience. The practice performs various procedures, from neutering and dental work to BOAS and orthopaedics. Their dedicated team works harmoniously, which is crucial to their success. Both practices are equipped with the latest technologies, as my client loves to invest in new advancements.

The Halesowen branch serves a diverse range of patients, including dogs, cats, and small furries. This branch has two vets and three nurses, with one vet specializing in dentistry and another in ultrasonography. The head nurse is also undergoing surgical nursing training.

The Oldbury branch is their 24-hour hospital, regularly handling complex cases, particularly in emergency and critical care (ECC). The head vet has extensive experience, especially with bull breeds, and is a registered Cambridge BOAS assessor with a genuine passion for the breed.
