COLLINGWOOD, INNER MELBOURNE - FULL TIME SMALL ANIMAL/REFERRAL, SURGICAL INTERNSHIP

Surgical Intern

Full time basis
Well-equipped hospital with modern facilities
An industry leading team based in the heart of Melbourne

The Centre for Animal Referral and Emergency (CARE) – a multi-specialist veterinary hospital located in central Melbourne – is recruiting for an enthusiastic and team-oriented surgical intern.

Who we are:
CARE is a busy multi-specialist veterinary hospital located in Collingwood, on the fringe of Melbourne city. It is a fast-growing, privately owned clinic with an ever-increasing caseload. We aim for gold standard patient care at all times and pride ourselves on having a cohesive, friendly working environment. We strive for excellent relationships with our referring veterinarians and clients. The hospital is staffed by an outstanding team of emergency veterinarians and nurses, working alongside specialists in internal medicine, emergency and critical care, surgery, radiology, and neurology.

We are a well-equipped centre with in-house 16-slice CT, ultrasound, digital subtraction fluoroscopy, computed radiography suite, in-house clinical pathology (including Idexx biochemistry, Radiometer blood-gas analysis, PT/APTT), endoscopy, advanced surgical monitoring, ventilation and regular off-site access to MRI. We are committed to the continued development of the facility and its instrumentation, to ensure that contemporary and newly developed techniques and practices are available for our patients.

The position:
The role involves assistance with all aspects of the surgical caseload, providing an excellent opportunity for exposure to an interesting and challenging surgical caseload, and an introduction to referral surgical practice. The successful candidate will work with our two specialist surgeons, Drs Guy Yates and Brenton Chambers, surgical resident and another surgical intern. Although the position is exclusively surgical, the staff is strongly team-oriented and a preparedness to assist and integrate with the other disciplines within the hospital would be expected.

The position would suit a highly motivated, hard-working and enthusiastic veterinarian with a minimum of 12 months practical experience and a strong interest in surgery as a discipline, as well as the pursuit of specialist training. Ideally, this person would be someone who shares our strong emphasis on the standard of patient care and optimizing treatment outcomes through thoughtful case management and discussion. They should be comfortable, genuine and effective in their written and verbal communication with clients, referring veterinarians and other hospital staff, cooperating with and complimenting the existing team.

The position is full-time, and depending on caseload, has the potential to involve some after-hours or weekend surgery or case management. Beyond the busy clinical aspects of the position though, there will be a commitment to supporting the professional development of the successful applicant. Consistent with this, attendance at weekly surgical rounds and journal club meetings would be expected. Enrolment for Membership examinations of the Australian College of Veterinary Scientists and submission of at least one scientific article for publication will also be strongly encouraged during the term of the internship. Remuneration is consistent with the award and will include 4 weeks annual leave.

How to apply:
Applications and enquiries should be directed to Ms Kelley Johnson (kjohnson@carevetspecialists.com.au).

Applications should include a cover letter and current CV (including contact details for three referees).

ASCOT VALE, INNER NORTH WEST MELBOURNE - FULL TIME SMALL ANIMAL

Flemington Veterinary Hospital is looking for a recent graduate or experienced vet to join our team!

Take it from one of our Vets, Avanti, who can tell you more below:

“We are extremely passionate about advocating excellent patient health and wellbeing. By allocating reasonable consult and surgery schedules, there is actually time for patient follow up, best care practices and client care.

Of course there can be unexpected busy times, but we respect life outside work and encourage leaving on time. Through flexible rostering, we promote the pursuit of outside interests and hobbies, and keep 1 in 3 weekends (Saturday 830-3 and Sunday 10-1) lifestyle friendly.

The weekly roster is fixed to accommodate regular extra-curricular activities and interests. No after-hours, and no public holidays.

Our future caring, compassionate and energetic colleague would be capable of sole charge, and a collaborative approach to complex cases is invited. Constructive communication skills to clients and team members is highly regarded. We frequently utilise the services of in-house professional interest practitioners in medicine, behaviour, surgery and dermatology, which provides unique learning opportunities and professional growth.

Our small team (Dr Anne, myself and 3 nurses) are a long-established clinic currently in the process of expanding into new, purpose built premises in March 2019 which will see our stress-free handling practices more easily performed through a feline-friendly separate waiting area, 3 consult rooms, sterile theatre, ICU, dedicated isolation and grooming facilities.

Total patient wellbeing, including mental health, is the essence of who we are.
I can honestly say I don't think I have achieved better work-life balance in my life than while working Flemington Veterinary Hospital. I can enjoy being a vet while still having time for hobbies and spending time with friends, family and my cheeky cats!

And most importantly, 5-star, Melbourne-grade coffee within 50m, wine bar literally across the road and a tram stop right out the front. Working a Friday night has never been more accommodating of a social life!”

We are ideally looking for a Veterinarian to work 30-38 hours per week, with a RDO for our full-time Vets
Shared weekend rotating roster, 1 in 3
NO afterhours!
We are located close to the CBD and have easy access to our clinic via public transport and CityLink

FRANKSTON - SMALL ANIMALS New Position

Who says that your life must be all work and no play? We like to think that you can achieve your dreams of overseas travel and world class continuing education; all while working at an awesome small animal ASAV accredited hospital – AND WE’LL PAY FOR IT ALL!

Our veterinarians are encouraged and paid to attend conferences around the world to learn about new and exciting things that make our work better and more fun while improving patient care and treatment options. Here is an insight into the recent and upcoming adventures of our Veterinarians:

North American Veterinary Conference - Orlando, Florida, USA
Western Veterinary Conference - Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
BSAVA Congress - Birmingham, UK
IVAS (International Veterinary Acupuncture Society) Conference - Cairns, AUS
WSAVA World Congress - Copenhagen, Denmark
European School for Advanced Veterinary Studies - Novara, Italy
WVC: Principles of Fracture Repair Lab - Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
Pacific Veterinary Conference - Long Beach, CA, USA
FASAVA Conference - Tokyo, Japan

If you are a self-motivated small animal veterinarian with 2+ years’ experience, enthusiastic about developing your skills in a small animal ASAV accredited, fun-loving (yes really) team orientated hospital, then this is the job for you.

We are ready to commit to someone with remarkable communication skills who values the importance of building strong relationships with clients and their pets. You will be working within a family of dedicated and experienced veterinarians and support staff, so you will need to work well in a team as well as having the ability to manage surgical and consulting workloads.

Your experience and leadership skills will be invaluable in helping the team achieve this and keep the hospital running smoothly at all times.

Our purpose at Karingal Veterinary Hospital is to support and nurture the special bond between our human clients and their pets by helping make sure these animals live lives that are as healthy and happy as possible. We provide a caring environment to deliver high quality surgery and medicine, with a strong focus on preventative healthcare. We are a 100% small animal hospital, in a modern purpose-built facility employing 9 veterinarians.

Our branch practice, Ballam Park Veterinary Clinic, which is a sole charge clinic, is situated within close proximity to the hospital (a leisurely 200m stroll). The successful candidate will be required to work at this clinic (likely once a week) giving you the opportunity to demonstrate your skills in a small clinic environment with the ability to use your judgment and make critical decisions yourself (while still being close to support and all the facilities at Karingal Veterinary Hospital should they be required).

The hours are pretty good

Working an average of 38-40 hours a week with a regular weekday off, your alternating shifts will consist of an 8hr consulting shift or 11hr surgical and evening consulting shift (allowing for continuity and follow through of surgical discharges). Given we are open every weekend (Saturday 9am-5pm & Sunday 9am-1pm), you would be expected to take part in the weekend rotation which is currently 1 in 5. But don’t worry, we do not open for after hours, on call work, or public holidays meaning more time for you to spend with family and friends.

And the work can be rewarding

You will be carrying out a variety of practice procedures including:

Consults with patients (first and second opinion)
General soft tissue surgery (if you can perform orthopaedics then even better).
Diagnosing and managing the common medical problems we see in general practice
Diagnostic laboratory work
Using X-Rays and ultrasound to diagnose your patients.
Scaling/polishing and extracting teeth in cats and dogs making use of digital dental X-rays.

At the hospital we see an interesting and varied caseload. At times it can be busy but we have an excellent support staff to vet ratio to help manage this. We aim to stay ahead of the pack with regards to the equipment available to provide top quality care and are equipped with the latest imaging, surgical and monitoring equipment including DR digital dental x-ray, CR digital radiology, endoscopy, electrocautery, multiple Surgivet Anaesthesia monitors, Colour Doppler Ultrasound and class 4 laser therapy.

Please click here to see photos!

Location
Karingal Veterinary Hospital and Ballam Park Veterinary Clinic are both located 5 minutes from the beaches of Port Phillip and 15 minutes from the wineries of the Mornington Peninsula.

The pay
The reward for your hard work and dedication will be in line with your level of experience with the exact pay rate dependant on how well your amazing skills meet our requirements. You will also benefit from paid conference leave in addition to the budget to get you there. This is a full time position.
