Veterinary Surgeon - Internal Medicine Focus

Veterinary Surgeon - Internal Medicine Focus Veterinary Surgeon - Small Animal (Internal Medicine Focus) Anicare Veterinary Group - Santry, Dublin Full-Time Permanent No OOH or Overnight Work Salary up to €65,000 DOE Shape a Role Around Your Clinical Interests

This is a genuinely unique opportunity for a vet with a strong interest in internal medicine to step into a role that offers both clinical autonomy and the freedom to develop a niche within a community setting.

Based in our Santry clinic, this is a sole charge position where you will have the space to manage your own caseload, build long-term client relationships, and shape how the practice evolves clinically. This is a growing team, not a replacement role, meaning you will be joining at an exciting time with real potential to make your mark.

A Role Designed for Medicine-Led Practice

This position is ideally suited to a vet who enjoys the diagnostic side of practice and wants to spend more time developing work ups, case continuity, and clinical depth.

You will manage a varied first opinion caseload, with a strong focus on consultations and medical cases such as dermatology or chronic conditions. While routine surgery is part of the role, this is not a surgically driven position. You simply need to be comfortable with routine, minor procedures such as neuters, lump removals, and basic dentals.

If your ambition is to pursue a certificate or further training in internal medicine or a related field, you will be fully supported and encouraged to do so.

True Autonomy in a Supportive Setting

As a sole charge vet, this role offers a level of independence that allows you to create your own clinical rhythm, set standards, and build your own client base.

You will be supported day to day by a small, experienced nursing team, and will also have access to the wider Anicare network for advice, case discussion, and referrals when needed. It is the perfect balance of autonomy and support, without feeling isolated.

A Steady, Community Focused Practice

Santry is a busy, well established community clinic with a loyal client base. This is a setting where you can take the time to build relationships, follow cases through, and practise thoughtful, high quality veterinary medicine.

The schedule is designed to support balance, with a 4 day week, limited weekend commitment, and no out of hours or overnight work, allowing you to fully switch off outside of your working day.

Who This Role Will Suit

This role is best suited to an experienced small animal vet who is confident working independently and enjoys the responsibility of sole charge.

You will be comfortable managing a general caseload, confident in routine procedures, and particularly interested in developing your skills in internal medicine or a related field.

This is not a role for new graduates or those requiring close mentorship. Instead, it is ideal for someone looking to settle into a practice long term, develop their own clinical niche, and take real ownership of their work.

A Practice That Invests in Your Future

Alongside a competitive salary, you will benefit from a package designed to support both your professional development and wellbeing.

There is a strong focus on CPD, with funding and support available for certificates, diplomas, and further qualifications, alongside a generous CPD allowance and paid study leave.

You will also benefit from paid professional memberships, structured annual leave including birthday leave, wellbeing support, pension contributions, and access to a wide range of additional perks.
