Why choose this job
Located on the beautiful Central Coast of NSW – plenty of beaches and bush walks to enjoy. Only a short drive from Sydney and also close to Newcastle.

Our client base is varied, but includes a significant breeder clientele, plus we have expertise in feline medicine and ferrets. Our services include general consultation and examinations, vaccinations, tumour and cancer, soft tissue, ophthalmic and orthopaedic surgeries, dentistry, anaesthesia and microchipping.
