The team

Both successful candidates will work under direct supervision of anaesthesia specialists (2 ECVAA, 1 ACVAA Diplomates and 1 ECVAA-resident trained fellow) to provide anaesthesia and analgesia service for varied surgical and diagnostic procedures.

The anaesthesia team is responsible for all referral anaesthesia. Plans are tailored to individual patients to achieve high standard of care. Anaesthesia support is given to the first opinion cases as well.

Your role

The applicant should have 1 - 2 years of clinical experience in general practice (preferably small animal) or have taken part in a rotating internship. You will receive training to manage anaesthesia and sedation of varied complexity and will gain competence in skills such as applying various locoregional blocks and vascular access, just to name a few. In addition, you will receive formal and informal teaching through tutorials and case discussions throughout the program. Desire to pursue a residency in anaesthesia is not a requirement. However, this internship program is aimed at preparing the candidate for a residency and the success chance of our past anaesthesia interns in securing a residency position (ECVAA and ACVAA) has been excellent.

Both roles will start on 24th May 2021.

For informal chat and enquiries please write to Sayaka (sayaka.okushima@scarsdalevets.com) and Hayley (hayley.ronaldson@scarsdalevets.com).
