About
Egypt-licensed veterinarian with 10 years' hands-on experience in a government veterinary hospital. I examine, handle and treat animals, assist in surgery and post-operative care, give vaccinations and treatments, and collect and handle samples. My experience is mainly with large animals, plus some dogs and cats, and I am keen to build my small-animal skills in a UK clinic.
Calm, reliable and careful with animals and their owners. I understand the Veterinary Care Assistant role and will work within its limits, following the vets' and nurses' instructions. Available part-time with flexible hours.
