A wonderful opportunity for a small animal Veterinary Surgeon to join Cromwell Veterinary Group in their Sawtry practice in Cambridgeshire!
You will be joining a very welcoming team who all support each other. All our Associates are committed to the care of our clients and their pets, and we would love to hear from applicants who share the same values. Many of our clinical team hold certificates in medicine, surgery, cardiology, dermatology and diagnostic imaging, with advanced practitioners in medicine and surgery. We are always keen to support professional development and certificates where possible.
The Sawtry branch is ISFM silver accredited and hosts an x-ray, surgical suite alongside dedicated consulting rooms for both the nurse and vet. In addition, we have a purpose-built rehabilitation centre staffed by our physiotherapy team, offering hydrotherapy, laser therapy and a range of treatments. On a typical day, you will be working alongside one of our wonderful nurses and one of our dedicated client care team, seeing consultations and a mix of routine surgeries, and always with the support of the wider team at the main hospital in Huntingdon. Whilst not essential, an interest in rehabilitation would flourish at Sawtry, but is not essential.

About us
Cromwell Vets is a busy 24-hour first opinion small animal hospital with 5 branch surgeries and a state of the art rehabilitation centre. Our practice has been caring for pets for over 100 years and we pride ourselves on providing gold standard veterinary medicine. Our tier 3 hospital has excellent facilities and equipment and hosts our dedicated out of hours service.
We have a fantastic, experienced and friendly clinical team with many certificate holders and we support and encourage CPD (including certificate study). We have all the equipment available to enable full work up of cases in house – digital radiography, ultrasound (including separate cardiac probe and doppler), video-endoscopy (gastroscope, bronchoscope and small rigid endoscopes), multi-parameter anaesthetic monitoring, tonometry, etc. We have just opened a new wing at our hospital with a state-of-the-art operating theatre, treatment rooms and a calm and spacious cat ward. We are also very proud of The Cromwell ARC – a purpose-built physiotherapy and hydrotherapy unit with aquatic treadmill and K-Laser, run by our two qualified physiotherapists.
We are very fortunate that many of our staff have been part of ‘The Cromwell Family’ for many years and as a team, we are very caring and supportive of one another. Wellbeing is top of the agenda and important to us all – we champion a better work life balance and are avid supporters of the WellVet Initiative.
We enjoy being part of our communities and attending local events to run fun dog shows raising money each year for our chosen charity and encouraging team members to take part. Cromwell Vets also holds regular social events, including summer events, impromptu lunchtime barbeques, and the famous annual Christmas party.
