About Summerhill Veterinary Centre

Summerhill Veterinary Centre is a small animal, one site, well equipped practice and has been based in Fakenham, Norfolk since 1993. We are a rural practice in a market town in a close-knit community, close to the North Norfolk beaches, pinewoods, the Norfolk Broads and equidistant between Norwich and Kings Lynn. We are 1.75 hrs from central London by train. We are an RCVS accredited first-opinion practice, which also takes local referrals in multiple disciplines. Our aim is to provide a high quality, professional, friendly service, and all work together as a team, and with our clients, to provide the best care for their pets.

All members of our team are equally important to this process, and we are keen to ensure all staff reach their potential and find their own niche within the practice, thus external referrals are rare. Quality of life and the wellbeing of our employees is of paramount importance to enable us to deliver the best service possible. We have a low staff turnover, and are a stable, experienced team in all departments.

We have a diploma holder in Advanced Veterinary Practice Sciences, and 3 RCVS recognised Advanced Practitioners, between them, in Emergency and Critical Care, Small Animal Surgery, Small Animal Medicine and Small Animal Ophthalmology.

The candidate will become part of our Veterinary Surgeon and Nursing teams providing veterinary care to our own clients and their pets day to day in practice and out of hours on call.
