Supportive, Skilled, Connected.

At New Street Vets, we may be a small team, but our collective experience fosters consistency in case management and helps us build strong relationships with our loyal client base. We hold monthly meetings to discuss clinical cases, ensuring that collaboration is at the heart of our practice. Our team is always just a phone call away for support and guidance.

Our longevity and strong staff retention have fostered excellent relationships with other local surgeries and our long-standing clients. We are proud to be an RCVS-accredited Practice Standards and nurse training facility, with all of our RVN nurses who trained with us choosing to stay on.

Proud to Be Part of IVC Evidensia

We have been established for over 30 years and we're proud to be part of the IVC Evidensia network. While we operate with autonomy, we benefit from the support of a wider veterinary group. This gives our team access to shared clinical expertise, advanced equipment, and a collaborative network of professionals - all while maintaining the freedom to make the right decisions for our patients locally.

A work/life balance that works for you

This position offers a flexible schedule of 40 hours per week, including 1:4 Saturday mornings. We're open to discussing fewer hours or different days to meet your needs, as we prioritise a healthy work-life balance for all our staff.

Our adaptable approach to rota patterns and working hours significantly enhances your work-life balance. We understand that everyone has various commitments outside of their professional life, and we strive to make it easy for you to find that ideal equilibrium.

Whether you require school-friendly hours, need to adjust your schedule during school holidays, or prefer a more flexible pattern such as working only in the afternoons, we are committed to accommodating your preferences.

A well-equipped practice

Together, we strive to deliver the highest standards of care, supported by our state-of-the-art facilities, which have recently been enhanced with digital X-ray and digital dental X-ray equipment.

Our practice is situated in an ideal location, close to both the sea and countryside, with Dartmoor and Exmoor just an hour’s drive away. We are more than happy to support anyone looking to relocate to join us in Honiton.
