Discover a diversity of caseload and experience

Whilst you would spend the majority of your time in consultations there is at least one day dedicated to surgery per week however, we do have ops blocks for emergency admits. Whilst our surgeries mainly consist of usual procedures we also see brachy surgery, ex laps, orthopaedics, PTA’s, lump removals, opthamology, nasal surgeries, alongside any emergencies that are admitted. Whilst we do have the ability to refer if needed the majority of surgeries are completed on site.
A Practice Where You Can Thrive
Our spacious practice includes five consulting rooms, a large main waiting area and a specific waiting room for cats. We also have separate cat kennels, separate large dog kennels and even a separate small furry ward too. There are two dedicated sterile theatres, and two dental/dirty stations within our practice.
Along with the usual equipment, we have also invested in:
- Digital AGFA Radiography
- New IMS Digital Dental Radiography
- ESOATE MyLab Ultrasound with Cardiac probes and full-colour Doppler
- Tonopen Ocular Tonometry and SlitLamp
- IDEXX Catalyst Biochemistry and Procyte Haematology
- ECG machine and IMEC multiparameter monitors
- Four Humphrey ADE Anaesthetic Circuits
- Gima Electrosurgical Unit
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
