Small Animal Veterinary Surgeon in Alexandria

At inspiring vet care, our people are at the heart of everything we do. As the UK's number one vet care provider, we're trusted with the care of over 2 million animals, delivering our purpose of healthier animals and happier owners.

Mckenzie Vets is looking for a dedicated, caring vet to join our happy team. We are a 100% small animal practice located in Alexandria in the beautiful Loch Lomond National Park but within easy reach of Glasgow and Stirling. We are lucky to have a varied and interesting caseload with pets of all breeds and sizes, genuinely lovely clients and time to spend with them

We try to have fun in work and out, taking part in events like the Kilt Walk each year, a Christmas ceilidh this year, and even zip-lining!

Our ideal candidate would be passionate about caring for our lovely patients, values the skills that come with being a GP vet, friendly and good at communicating. Part-time hours would ideally be 2 or 3 days a week plus one Saturday morning in 4 but we can be flexible around working hours.
