Norwich Regional Animal Hospital is looking for a compassionate and engaged Veterinary Technician to join our small but mighty team.
We are a one-vet small animal general practice with a diverse clientele. We balance our schedule so that not only are we never double-booked, but we also have room to see urgent cases (both our clients' and others'). We have two exam rooms, a treatment room, a lab, a surgery suite, and an X-ray.
This is a place where we are truly a team. Collaboration is the name of the game, and we make sure that all staff get what they need while also taking care of clients. The education and lived experiences of each of us are valued and listened to, from our rescue-savvy receptionist to our dog-sport competitor veterinary assistant. Every day is a new set of clients and a new adventure where you can dig into your vet tech knowledge without feeling overwhelmed. We value new skills and support a wide variety of continuing education opportunities – not just the usual lunch-and-learns!
For the health of our patients and the sanity of our staff, we’re looking for the right person to round out the team—and we’re willing to take our time to find the right fit. We want you to be happy here for a long time!
