The Animal Medical Centre is Tasmania’s largest companion animal practice and has a varied caseload, both surgical and medical.

Located on one site, but consisting of two buildings, we have a dog clinic and an ISFM gold standard cat clinic.

We have 12 vets and over 30 nurses and receptionists all working to get the very best result for our patients and their owners. Our first opinion clinic is well known within Launceston for providing high quality care and great service for our clients.

We receive referral cases from the North of Tasmania and regularly perform advanced surgeries (soft tissue and orthopaedic), as well as oncology, imaging and acupuncture referrals.

Please click here to see photos!

We want you to be the best you can be!

In our practice our vets and nurses help and look out for each other.
Our experienced vets help mentor our newer vets and it pays to listen to our fantastic nurses- they often have made the diagnosis before the vet!
We encourage and support our vets to pursue their interests- many of our vets have their niches which allows us to refer in house.
This makes our team proficient in imaging, soft tissue surgery, medicine, orthopaedics, oncology, ophthalmology and acupuncture.

But what about you?

Are you a newer vet who wants to take advantage of the knowledge and experience of our vets?
Or are you an experienced vet keen to work with a great team of peers?
Do you want to work part time or full time?
Our practice is big enough and flexible to fit in with what you want to do.
Do you want to practice feline medicine? Or do you want to do dogs only? Or both? You choose!

Post Covid, Launceston has seen an influx of new residents who have moved for the fresh air, our lifestyle and the quality of life we enjoy. Our town has a great university and café vibe, and is a fantastic base for hiking, mountain biking or the beaches.

Not sure if you’re ready to commit?

SCOTTSDALE, NORTH-EAST TASMANIA - MIXED

Scottsdale Veterinary Services is seeking a new or recent graduate veterinarian to join their friendly team. Scottsdale is in the heart of north-east Tasmania, only an hour from Launceston.

Due to our truly mixed caseload, as a new or recent grad you will quickly be competent with:

Pregnancy testing cattle both manual and ultrasound
Lame cows – with our fantastic tipper trailer and LA techs
Bull breeding soundness evaluations (and be accredited!)
Most routine small animal surgery and some orthopaedic surgery e.g. TTO
Laparoscopic LDA

We have a supportive team of 6 full time equivalent vets plus 3 nurses. Clinic hours are 8:30am - 5:00pm Monday to Friday.

We have all the usual toys – in house pathology, ultrasound, digital x-ray. For cattle, we have the added advantage of a tipper trailer. When you are on call (only 1:6 rota), all calls are answered by our Tele-Triage team of experienced vet nurses. This means that you are not disturbed for non-urgent enquiries.

The mix of work is approximately 50% large animals (dairy, beef, equine, small ruminants) and 50% companion animals. There is plenty of experience within our vet team across all species. Our vets have advanced training and/or special interest areas in dairy medicine and bull fertility, small animal medicine and surgery (even rabbits!) and we have accredited advisors for many of the Dairy Australia programs.

We not only have a great working environment, with a 9-day fortnight, there’s plenty of spare time to enjoy the region.

Previously, our new grad joined the local footy and netball competitions, the local Surf Lifesaving Club, competed in numerous 1/2 marathons, climbed all the local mountains and practiced yoga on stand-up paddle boards, and has eaten at all the local restaurants and our two local distillery and breweries!! There’s also fishing, world class mountain bike trails & golf courses, more sporting clubs and the beautiful Bridport beaches are just a 15-minute drive away.

“I came to Scottsdale Vets as a new grad in 2018. I have had the most support one could hope for, a great team of vets to work with and bounce ideas off and who will help you no matter what the hour is. We now have teletriage for after-hours which is amazing, you don’t have to talk to clients – definitely a game changer! I have been supported in furthering my skills in orthopedics, bull testing, equine dentistry and everything in between. We have both the perks of being part of a corporate where you have a specialist in every field only a phone call away, however, are also lucky that it is still a family orientated vibe at our clinic, and work isn’t always the first priority. I could not recommend this position enough, I am heading off to get some travelling out of my system but hope to end back here in the near future!” (Maddy Reid)
