- Our vets don’t leave us for local clinics – we only have vacancies if vets move interstate or have babies (and they still come back)
- We’re a close knit, relaxed team and work efficiently together
- We have a good work life balance with 2 nights a month on call, and we all work together to leave on time

- You know your limitations and are happy to be involved in group case discussions and internally refer cases as needed
