Our Location
Chandlers Hill Vet is in Happy Valley, a leafy suburb in the southern hills of Adelaide. We are just half an hour from the McLaren Vale Wine region to the south and the City in the north. The beach and Marion Shopping centre are 15-20 minutes’ drive away.
Our Practice
Chandlers Hill Vet is a small animal clinic with very good standing in the local area. We have renovated and extended the premises for a spacious, modern feel. We have three consult rooms, separate cat waiting area, large dog ward, separated from the cat ward. We have a dedicated imaging room, sterile surgery and non-sterile treatment room. There is a large veterinary office and nurse station, well situated in the centre of operations.
We utilise Ezyvet software. We have Idexx blood and urine machines in a dedicated lab area, digital dental xray (Sopro), digital general xray and ultrasound. We regularly use SAVMR as mobile ultrasound specialists.
Our Team
We have a team of four vets with three vets working each day and a large nursing team who provide great support, including assisting in the consult rooms so that vet recommendations are followed through, as well as helping with animal holding, updating records and billing during the consult.
The Opportunity
We have an exciting opportunity for a part-time Veterinarian to join our friendly and supportive team, working 3–4 days per week (25–32 hours) with a shared rotating Saturday morning roster.
Our clinic is known for its collaborative culture and comes highly recommended by the locum veterinarians who have worked with us. We genuinely value every team member's input, holding separate monthly veterinarian and all team meetings to ensure everyone has the opportunity to share ideas, contribute to decisions, and help shape the future of the clinic.
You'll be joining a highly skilled team with a passion for surgery and mentoring. Our veterinarians enjoy helping one another develop their skills, from routine procedures through to more advanced surgeries. Surgery and dental rosters are shared across the veterinary team, although we're equally happy to welcome a veterinarian who prefers a predominantly consulting-focused role.
You'll also be supported by an exceptional nursing team, with 95% of our nurses holding a Certificate IV in Veterinary Nursing. Their experience and capability allow our veterinarians to focus on delivering outstanding patient care while enjoying a balanced and rewarding caseload.
