YARRAMBAT & NORTH WARRANDYTE, NORTH EAST MELBOURNE - MIXED
Full Time mixed animal veterinarian position
The Veterinary Surgery is looking for a mixed animal veterinarian to join The Veterinary Surgery team (Yarrambat & North Warrandyte).
70% Small, 15% equine, 15% mixed animals.
We are seeking a veterinarian who will work well in a large, friendly and supportive team of vets and nurses that provide a high level of care to our patients.
Please click here to see photos!
The Position:
- Well-supported position within a great team of 10 vets spread across two clinics
- 4 x 9.5 hour weekday shifts with one rostered weekday off, plus 1 in 4 Saturday morning shifts
- 1 in 7 weeknights on call plus 1 in 7 weekends on call
- 4 weeks annual leave plus one week paid study leave with a further $1500 CPD allowance
- Attractive remuneration
- Large and varied medical and surgical caseload, rarely limited by financial constraints
- Best suited to a motivated, versatile and progressive vet
- Best suited to a vet who will appreciate and contribute to a culture of fun in our workplace
- Baking is looked upon favourably
The clinics and the business:
- Main clinic located in Yarrambat, a picturesque and semi-rural suburb approx 45 mins northeast of Melbourne's CBD
- Branch clinic located in Warrandyte, a beautiful village nestled in the green wedge alongside the Yarra River, 40 min east of the CBD
- Independently owned business with two directors who will happily clean cages, and work shoulder to shoulder with the associates
- Both clinics comprehensively equipped with premium diagnostic and monitoring equipment.
Words from one of our Associate Vets:
- We are one of the few clinics where is it possible to live in the "city" and do mixed animal practice
- Our nurses are well-trained to look after us, not over-book and give us enough time for consults, phone calls and catch-ups. Lunchtimes and home-times are considered sacred, and we almost always get out on time. If you want to leave the clinic to go for a walk or pick up lunch at lunchtime, that is almost always possible.
- Doing on-call is an opportunity to serve the local community, to gain unique experience, learn to think on your feet and see some cool cases, but we also have the ability to refer small animal emergencies to 24-hour centres so they can receive the best of care (which also means on-call isn't overly busy)
- As we see such a variety of animals and cases, there is definitely the ability for vets to develop a special interest - anything from alpacas, or equine dentistry, or small animal behaviour. But otherwise, this is an awesome clinic to become a well-rounded mixed animal practitioner, with vets experienced in different areas to provide support and guidance.
- Our large animal work is often for clients who keep a small number of these animals as pets, and so individual diagnostics and treatment are often pursued, but there is also the scope for doing some herd health work if vets are interested
- We have the ability both to work-up and treat complicated cases in-house, and use travelling specialists, but also, we commonly refer and have excellent relationships with specialist centres
- Our clients are generally excellent, usually very respectful and keen to do the best for their animals. As a small independent practice, we have many clients that have been coming to the clinic for decades and value the personalised care we can provide for their animals.
- We are a very casual, friendly, chatty bunch. We work hard but have fun. The radio plays out the back. We often sit and have lunch together. The vet team are very supportive and approachable and share cases and ideas and ask each other for help commonly.
Please contact Andy Lynch at andrew.lynch@thevetsurgery.com.au or at the Yarrambat Veterinary Hospital 03 9436 1699 to register your interest or to further discuss the position.

MELBOURNE - 2025 ECC INTERNSHIP New Position
Elevate Your Veterinary Career with CARE's 2025 Emergency and Critical Care Internship!
Are you looking for an ECC Internship with great case exposure?
How about working alongside a Criticalist and 6 MANZCVS Veterinarian's ready to share their knowledge with you!
About the Internship
Join our high-volume Emergency and Critical Care Department, where we handle over 10,000 cases annually. This immersive 12-month internship is your gateway to mastering emergency and critical care, providing you with unparalleled clinical exposure, structured mentorship, and continuous education. Under the expert guidance of Dr. Christine Lovatt DACVECC and our team of 6 seasoned MANZCVS veterinarians, you will thrive in an environment committed to the highest standards of patient care.
This internship program is an exciting opportunity to immerse yourself in an intensely rewarding and fast paced discipline. It is focused on the provision of clinical exposure, structured mentorship and continuing education to engender confidence, develop clinical competence and serve as an introduction to the academic aspects of emergency and critical care. Beyond this, the role has the potential to open up further opportunities for career progression within the discipline.
The program has a fixed term of 12-months and is full-time. The majority of the year would be spent within the Emergency Department, but there would also be short rotations through other specialist departments.
Why Choose our ECC Internship?
The internship incorporates a range of benefits, which are included to capitalise on learning opportunities and optimise the value of the program for the intern, including:
- Early active participation in the ECC environment without the immediate pressure of primary case responsibility and a progressive transition to case responsibility based on readiness, and with the support and guidance of assigned mentors. Accordingly, all shifts will be rostered alongside another experienced ECC clinician – no sole charge is required at any time point during internship.
- Active involvement in daily ECC rounds and attendance at regular ECC tutorials
- Rotation through other departments of the hospital, specifically surgery and internal medicine, to further develop the intern's knowledge and skills in these areas. Additionally, there is access to, and considerable opportunity for, interaction with specialists in all departments on a daily basis. Beyond the obvious benefits, this also often allows for the follow-up of cases beyond the direct involvement of the Emergency Department.
- Mentorship by senior veterinarians, including multiple MANZCVS veterinarians and direct supervision and guidance from our DACVECC, Dr Christine Lovatt.
- Encouragement, support and provision for preparation for Membership examinations of the Australian and New Zealand College (if eligible) or other post-graduate training opportunities – we have had 4 veterinarians pass membership exams in the last 2 years!
- Consistent exposure to a large, diverse caseload supports familiarity with common presentations and ensures early application of knowledge.
- Professional and social interaction with the intern group within the hospital
- Competitive remuneration including 5 weeks of annual leave and 1 week of study leave for conference or externship attendance.
- Access to Greencross employee benefits, including National Symposium, other internal CE opportunities, vet registration payment, a CE allowance and RECOVER certification.

EASTERN MELBOURNE - 24/7 SMALL ANIMAL HOSPITAL
Extraordinary Beginnings
We're not looking for superstars; we're just a team of passionate veterinarians who work together to achieve the extraordinary. We are not a corporate clinic, and so we have more control over our destiny! We've been pioneering in our field for years, and we're excited to open our doors to a new colleague who shares our enthusiasm. Each of us has our unique areas of interest and expertise, and we're eager to welcome someone who wants to explore their passion with us.
State-of-the-Art Facility
Our brand-new, purpose-built clinic is a veterinary haven, with gold-level feline friendly accreditation. We feature a full rehab-ready facility, including 9m swimming pool and underwater treadmill, cat-only consulting and hospital wing, advanced dental suite, separate soft tissue and orthopaedic surgical theatres, as well as fluoroscopy and CT scanner all on site.
We have all of the toys that you would expect for a hospital of our scale - and more! We're especially excited by advancements around our industry, and as such we work with AI consulting software and love whipping out our CO2 laser for surgery!
Please click here to see photos!
24/7 Hospital
As a 24/7 hospital, we encounter a wide range of cases, from routine vaccinations to unique emergencies. You'll have the opportunity to be involved in diverse cases from day one with clients who are invested to take the next step when it comes to their pet's healthcare. Our team is close-knit and supportive, ensuring you'll have guidance and assistance whenever you need it.
We are excited to support our clinicians in their areas of special interest and actively encourage them to pursue developing growth in these areas.
Whilst the role will see you working across both routine and emergency cases, we are especially looking for someone to flourish in our emergency service. A candidate who is looking to further develop their interests in this area would find the role to be extremely satisfying and highly rewarding.
Build your fanbase by booking your clients back to see you for their follow-ups. Learn how to finesse your clinical approach by following the progress of your patients, as they recover from everything from sore ears, to diabetic ketoacidosis to GDV!
Get to the bottom of your suspicions - all of your diagnostic fantasies are at your fingertips. We have a full laboratory suite - offering blood gas analysis, hormonal assays, CBC, biochemistry, digital microscopy and clotting profiles. How about imaging? Take your pick from the DR-X-RAY, dental X-ray, ultrasonography, fluoroscopy, endoscopy and the CT scanner.
Create and implement treatment plans based on the latest evidence-based strategies. With a wide range of cases, this may mean stabilising an Addisonian crisis to discharge or nurturing a blocked cat toward a perineal urethrostomy procedure. Whether you're excited about medicine or surgery, our case management is comprehensive and will give you the opportunity to explore this aspect of patient care.
Collaborate with a team of equally excited veterinarians to reach your patient goals. We have extensive communication support channels amongst the team, there is always a hand available - any time of the day or night. We find those who best succeed in our environment will be those who actively participate in collegial discussions through these networks.
Step up into a role of leadership and decisiveness! Overnight shifts and periods of sole charge will mean that you, as the veterinarian, are the leader of the hospital! Whilst you will also spend time working directly alongside your veterinary colleagues, sole charge shifts really allow you the challenge to cultivate strong leadership capabilities! You will have an experienced support team behind you, and management staff on call for when you need a bit of extra support.
Invest in yourself and value growth & career progression. We have a practice membership with the leading provider of Australian emergency veterinary education - Vet Education. We also support and tutor our clinicians through the development of their soft, non-clinical skills through teachings from The Lincoln Institute.
Our clinic value:
Treat every client as you would wish your mother to be treated.
Treat every pet as you would wish your 3-year-old niece to be treated.
If this resonates with you - we're waiting to hear from you!
