"I joined the team at Tern Vets after working there over a few months as a locum. I was immediately made to feel welcome and part of the team and the varied case load combined with the priority placed on team learning and discussion made me feel it was a place I could progress clinically. So far I’ve gained further surgical experience and look forward to developing skills in laparoscopic surgeries." - Kaitlin, Veterinary Surgeon.What do our clients think of us?"Tern vets Newport are in my opinion the very best around always a warm welcome from reception to seeing the vet, everything is laid out for you in clear language. They always treat your fur friend like one of the family, which I guess is what makes a good vet, but what makes a great vet is compassion care and love for your fur friend which is given without question. I wouldn''t let anyone else be my pets primary care giver because once the standards bar is set so high its hard to find another with the same commitment, with tern vets its not simply about the money the love and care understanding of your and your pets needs is and has always come first." - Simon, Tern client.A lovely place to live and work inNorth Shropshire has the advantage of being rural and beautiful, perfect for dog walking, horse riding, wild water swimming, mountain biking etc. Whilst being within easy access of Birmingham, Manchester and Liverpool.Benefits
