Residency Positions in Small Animal Diagnostic Imaging, Pride Veterinary Centre, Derby, UK
Overview Our multidisciplinary referral hospital is currently taking applications for two ECVDI residency positions in veterinary radiology (small animal track). The Diagnostic Imaging residency offered is a three-year program designed to provide advanced training in Diagnostic Imaging and to satisfy the European College of Veterinary Diagnostic Imaging (ECVDI) residency requirements. The successful candidates will join our dynamic team of three experienced European Diplomates in Veterinary Diagnostic Imaging, in a purpose built, state of the art referral hospital in Derby. Our hospital works in conjunction with the University of Nottingham School of Veterinary medicine, offering opportunities for collaborative work and teaching of the final year student during their clinical rotations. We also work alongside a Vets@Night service, and benefit from a dedicated leadership structure and extensive on-site support teams including Finance, Customer Care and HR. Pride Veterinary Centre is set in the heart of the prize-winning Pride Park development which boasts a plethora of modern sporting arenas and commercial enterprises. Further afield, the foothills of the Derbyshire Dales offer idyllic surroundings, whilst having the urban benefits of both Derby and Nottingham cities on the doorstep and an international airport very close by. |
