Feedback from a 2023 graduate currently working at this practice.
I am enjoying life in Australia and am very happy. The owner and other vets at the practice are very supportive. I’ve started here as a new graduate and there is always a vet available to assist me with consultations and surgery.
I have just started doing after-hours calls and there is always a vet available if I need them. All the vets have been very patient with me. The nurses are very supportive and very experienced. I fit in well at the practice.
Every second Friday, we have some continuing education, including discussing cases which I thoroughly enjoy. It is a very positive environment to be in.
