LAUNCESTON - MIXED PRACTICE

Full time Veterinarian Required (New Graduates welcome to apply)

Launceston Veterinary Clinic is looking for a committed and enthusiastic veterinarian to join our team of 5 vets in our busy mixed practice. Launceston is the fastest growing city in Tasmania with a population of over 100,000. Whilst it is the commercial hub of Northern Tasmania, it boasts proximity to a multitude of gorgeous natural sights including Launceston’s Cataract Gorge, Ben Lomond and Cradle Mountain, as well as being home to Aurora Stadium and the Boags Brewery.

We have friendly and professional support staff, and having limited options for referral we have the opportunity to challenge ourselves in following through with diagnostics and procedures that would otherwise be handballed on the mainland. To help us with this we have a good x-ray machine and automatic processor, video endoscopes with recording capabilities, ultrasound machine, new dental suite, 4 anaesthetic machines, two surgical tables, and various machines that go beep and ping such as ECG, Doppler and pulse oximeter as well as cautery and suction.

The caseload varies as a majority of the work is small animal, but intermingled with large animal cases from horses to cows and alpacas. We see a fair number of pocket pets and birds, and frequently have native wildlife requiring attention.

The successful applicant will be provided with a work car and phone and will be expected to participate in the after hours roster.

Enquiries should be made to:
Dr Kim Barrett or Dr Fiona Duggan
