Proudly privately owned, our General Practice and ECC Centre, along with 2 Satellite Clinics, provides a Dynamic work environment and a wide and varied caseload. Located in one of Australia’s biggest growth corridors, our client base is expanding and we are building out and developing a well-rounded team including ECC and Medicine Specialists.

We are looking for an Experienced Vet and team player who has a solid grounding in GP and ECC work but is looking to advance and expand on their small animal surgical skills and knowledge.

To thrive in this environment we must employ resilient, flexible, hard-working, adaptive staff who bring a special range of skill sets that cannot be easily put into words, but perhaps best described as ultimate team players.

Our Surgical Service:
This position has been developed to ensure we continue to provide a high level of surgery across a wide and varied caseload. Our GP Centres provide routine surgery 5 days per week and our ECC Centre provides advanced and urgent surgery 24hrs a day.

This position will also provide the applicant the opportunity to gain mentorship, training, support, and guidance from a travelling Specialist Surgeon, who works from our Centre one week in four.

Expand your knowledge with access to more advanced surgical cases whilst still building a solid foundation in GP and ECC cases. This position will assist our Management team, Veterinary Directors and Lead Vets to oversee and build and develop the Surgical services within our Practice.

Rotating Internship – Starts January 2025

Southpaws is one of Australia's best-known Veterinary Specialist and Emergency hospital groups, with an aim to be the first choice for expert veterinary care, why? Because our pets are our family.

Our internships have been the launchpad for numerous residency and specialist pathways.
The Rotating Internship is not only the opportunity to gain valuable insight, experience, knowledge and new skills as a clinician, but it can also be an essential first step on a journey to specialisation.

The Role

Whether you have experience in general practice or not, rotating internships are designed to give you exposure to a specialist veterinary environment as well as the hustle of 24 hour emergency, develop your skills and knowledge, and gain exposure to the different specialisations that you may want to pursue at the end of the program.

Our capabilities encompass Total Hip Replacement and joint resurfacing, laparoscopic interventions, fluoroscopy-guided fracture repair, and transvenous coil embolisation for Porto-systemic shunts.

Supporting our Surgical and Emergency Departments are board certified anaesthetists providing continuous coverage throughout the week across our various locations. Their expertise ensures optimal care for our patients through individualised anaesthestic protocols and ultrasound guided loco-regional anaesthesia for most surgeries.

As a rotating intern you will have the opportunity to work in our busy 24/7 emergency department allowing you hands-on experience in triage, diagnosis, and treatment of a wide range of emergencies in small animals. You will work alongside an experienced and supportive team of vets and nurses who will help you develop your technical skills and foster your growth as a veterinary professional in a fast-paced environment. You will have exposure to point of care testing that facilitates rapid diagnosis in emergency situations. Alongside technical skills emergency medicine teaches adaptability, flexibility and allows you to make meaningful impacts in the lives of animals and their families in times of crisis.

Where are we?

Lilydale Vet Centre is located on the edges of the Yarra Valley which is arguably the entry to the prettiest area in Victoria, and certainly the best wine!

We believe in investing in professional and personal growth and are one of the few hospitals with a CT, CO2 laser, fluoroscope and ligasure. We have every piece of equipment a general hospital can wish to have.

To keep up with the rapid development, we use AI to write our medical histories, X-rays and cytology.
