No overnight duties are required as our OOH provision is covered by Vets Now.

The main tasks of the role include:
· Maintaining high standards of hygiene

· Running diagnostic tests on in house lab machines
· Admitting and discharging patients

"I take both my two cats and dog to Valley Vets on Spencers Wood and would definitely recommend them. The staff are very friendly. The vets are great with the animals and explain options fully and comprehensively. Following a minor op and spaying in fairly quick succession with my dog there, she loves it there and even runs to the front door when we have been for check ups since."
