NORTH GOSFORD SPECIALIST ROLES

Business Opportunities for Specialist/s

Our brand-new facility is one of the largest and most carefully designed, unique veterinary hospitals you will find. Our dream practice boasts multiple viewing areas over the surgical theatres, accommodation, lecture room and an integrated boutique pet shop in the waiting areas.

Please click here to see photos

We have a large well-established client base in the Wyong Shire area and are now expanding to the Gosford shire.

Our small animal hospital is seeking more veterinarians for our general practice, as well as interest from veterinary specialists of various disciplines (eligible for registration in NSW). One specialty is already joining our team. Overseas applicants are welcome.

Clients are expecting more and more from vets on the coast, many requesting the highest quality of veterinary care for their beloved pets. Often, such care can only be attained in Sydney, which greatly reduces the number of clients seeking that level, due to travel. In recent times specialist care is becoming a viable option for a greater population, due to the explosion of insured pets. Our hospital has achieved no.1 position in NSW, for pet insurance uptake with an insurer, creating this unique opportunity.

Our facility offers flexible options including managing your own speciality within the practice, with possible combined or separate entrances and large waiting areas. We are open to discuss different business options.

We pride ourselves in being a hardworking, caring practice, always looking at ways to improve ourselves. We hope to find like-minded individuals to enhance and fit within this nice facility.

The new hospital is very close to Sydney, less than one hour from the northern suburbs. It is centrally located for ease of access from the entire population of the central coast. (10mins from the Freeway (F3), 2 minutes from the centre of Gosford City)

Please see the website www.centralcoastvet.com.au for early pictures of the new facility. Expressions of interest can be made first by email (confidential to the practice partners (Drs Tamra & Chad Acciari)), at jobs@centralcoastvet.com.au and your return contact details should be attached please.

The central coast boasts beautiful beaches and lakes, a highly ranked selective high school (Gosford) within 4 kms of the new surgery, with veterinary alumni from this school. All still within a train ride, or a 1hr drive (in low traffic) to be on the Sydney Harbour Bridge!
