Due to the continued success of our growing practice, Richmond Vets for Pets are now looking for an RVN or SVN to join our incredible team!

About us

We’re an RVN training practice that are supportive of individual interests so if you have a particular area of interest, this could be the practice for you! Based in the lovely suburb of East Sheen in London, we’re in a brand-new practice on the bustling high street, having relocated from our old premises in November 2021.

As Richmond Park is just around the corner, there is plenty of open-air park space nearby and easy travel links in and out of the city centre. Mortlake train station is a few minutes’ walk from the practice, and several bus routes stop outside. Our great location means we benefit from having over 4000 active patients, of which 30% are on a health care plan meaning we see a wide variety of cases on a weekly basis.

Our bright, air-conditioned surgery is purpose built to industry leading standards, is RCVS practice standards accredited and we have state of the art equipment including digital X-ray, ultrasound, and in-house laboratory facilities.

You’ll be joining our team led by our partners, Roger Irish, Roger Bralow and Christopher Berkett. We have a team of 4 vets, 3 RVNs, 1 VCA, 1 practice manager and 3 receptionists.
