to join our friendly and dedicated team on a
full time or part-time basis
. This is a varied and hands-on role where no two days are quite the same, with a great mix of consulting, surgery and the occasional curveball!

Consults generally run from 8:*****:30am and 3:00–6:00pm, with surgery and procedures scheduled around these times. While we primarily operate on an appointment-based system, we occasionally manage emergencies and walk-in patients, so strong triage and patient care skills are highly valued.
