Full Time

£35,000, Plus Benefits

We are proud to announce that we are now inviting applications for a Small Animal Neurology Intern. This role is the perfect opportunity to work alongside two highly experienced Neurology Diplomates and expand your skills, knowledge, and clinical experience. This internship would be best suited to someone looking to pursue a Neurology residency next year. The role consists of varying shifts to suit the needs of a busy multidisciplinary hospital and includes care of in-house patients outside of normal working hours and on selected weekends and nights. Active involvement in client communication and patient care is expected, along with participation in consults and medical and surgical case management.

Hamilton Specialist Referrals is an established multi-disciplinary veterinary hospital that provides comprehensive medical and surgical care for small animals, supported by an exceptional rehabilitation and physiotherapy facility. Located in modern facilities, we are based in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, within easy reach of London, Oxford, the Chilterns and the Cotswolds. The hospital is five minutes from the M40 and located near major airports. Hamilton Specialist Referrals was born out of the belief that there is room for a new wave of veterinary excellence across the UK. Unparalleled clinical care, and comprehensive information delivered in a friendly and supportive manner to referring vets, are paramount to the team. HSR has a clear focus on recruiting the right people to make that a reality. The hospital is operational 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, and facilities include on-site 1.5T MRI and CT scanner suites, multiple operating theatres, multiple hospitalisation areas, including a high-dependency unit (HDU), a variety of joint replacement systems, electrodiagnostic equipment, and a full complement of the latest radiography and arthroscopy equipment.

Interns are encouraged to openly engage in case discussions with senior supervising clinicians, residents, and the senior nursing team, and should contribute to a positive, informative, respectful, and inclusive environment for all. Attention to detail, particularly in maintaining accurate records and written correspondence, is also a key component of this role. The internship runs for 12 months and covers varying shifts to suit the needs of the hospital, including 1 in 4 weekend cover for Neurology and HDU services, and occasional out-of-hours work.

Hamilton Specialist Referrals is part of the IVC family. At inspiring vet care, our people are at the heart of everything we do. As the UK’s number one vet care provider, we're trusted with the care of over 2 million animals, delivering our purpose of healthier animals and happier owners.
