Are you an Internal Medicine Specialist who loves interesting cases and would like a life outside the hospital? Melbourne Veterinary Specialist Centre (MVSC) is looking for a board‑certified specialist (or a registrar close to sitting exams) to join our friendly, collaborative multidisciplinary team in Melbourne.
Why MVSC? MVSC is a leading multidisciplinary specialist hospital delivering advanced care across Internal Medicine, Surgery, Dermatology and Behavioural Medicine. We’re known for excellent medicine, strong referral relationships… and being a place where people enjoy coming to work! We operate across two Melbourne locations: Essendon Fields (Dermatology only). All Internal Medicine is based at Glen Waverley, in our purpose‑built hospital with the toys you actually want:
- Brand new high‑field MRI
- Full diagnostic suite supporting thorough workups and informed clinical outcomes
You’ll join an established Internal Medicine service with two experienced specialists and a resident, backed by capable, multidisciplinary specialist teams in Surgery, Dermatology and Behavioural Medicine.
The Role (AKA: the good stuff)
- Manage a varied and complex referral caseload
- Work closely with our specialist teams across Surgery, Dermatology and Behavioural Medicine
- Help shape the ongoing growth and development of the Internal Medicine service
- Enjoy autonomy with strong support when you need it (because nobody wins medals for doing everything alone)
Specialist life can be intense — we get it. This role is designed for sustainability:
- Minimal after‑hours requirements
- Full‑time or part‑time flexibility (we’ll work with your life, not against it)
Growth & Support
At MVSC, you’ll have:
- Access to a national network of specialists and referral hospitals
- CPD support and ongoing development
- Opportunities to mentor, collaborate and contribute to service growth
- A culture that values clinical excellence, innovation and teamwork (and also a little humour)
What We’re Looking For
- Veterinary degree registerable in Australia
- Specialist qualifications (FANZCVS, DACVIM or DECVIM) or residency completed with plans to sit exams soon
- Open to someone starting on a fixed‑term contract first, with the option to move permanent once you’ve had a proper feel for the hospital
The Perks (the important bit)
- Competitive salary package
- Potential ownership/licensee opportunities for the right candidate
- Access to advanced imaging and specialist facilities
- Supportive, collaborative, genuinely fun culture
- Greencross benefits including national discounts (retail/health/travel), parental leave, paid study/CE, and 24/7 counselling support
Why Melbourne? Because Melbourne is excellent: great food, great coffee, sport everywhere, culture for days — plus coastlines and wine regions close enough for an actual weekend off.
Ready to chat? If you’re keen to do great medicine in a hospital that’s serious about both clinical standards and staff wellbeing, we’d love to hear from you.
