Here’s what the team have to say

“I worked for Rae bean now for 6 years. IVC has always shown they care for the vet’s career progression and work-life balance. Over my time with them I have seen a real improvement through investment in both people and equipment. IVC supports and encourages CPD in any way they can. I believe the practice is formed by the people in it and we really work as a team, support each other and help each other develop. IVC gave me the opportunity to become the clinical director after 4 years in practice as a vet which has opened a completely new chapter in my career”. Candelaria, Clinical Director
