Hear What The Team Have To Say About TVC
'I started working for TVC two and a half years ago after taking a short break from clinical work to start a family. I couldn’t have asked for a more supportive team to ease me back in than the fantastic team at Newhall. We are lucky to have a great group of clients and it is rare that there is a week without some form of yummy treat! We see a diverse range of cases to cover most interests. Since starting at TVC I have been supported through the final stages of my small animal medicine certificate and have been supported throughout career progressions. We are well equipped with a gastroscope, bronchoscope and rigid scope alongside the usual toys such as ultrasound, x-ray and dental x-ray etc. Our nurses are fantastic with an additional ECC qualification and a wealth of experience between them. We are more than colleagues at Newhall we are family looking to welcome someone else into the fold!' - Jenny, CD
