We are looking for an enthusiastic and confident candidate for our 12-month Small Animal Internal Medicine internship programme to join our friendly and supportive team of Medicine Diplomates, clinicians, residents, nurses and animal care assistants.
The opportunity
Our 12-month medicine internship programme provides an opportunity for recently-qualified veterinarians or veterinarians who have already done a rotating internship and are looking for more specialist internal medicine experience to receive high-quality postgraduate training in small animal medicine.

This provides them with an opportunity to participate in specialist veterinary discipline care and can allow preparation for a Senior Clinical Training Scholarship programme, a career in research, academia or specialist clinical medicine.
