Miramar Vets, part of inspiring vet care, is a bright, spacious and welcoming practice designed to make every day feel enjoyable and well supported. With four consulting rooms including a dedicated RVN consulting space and a peaceful rainbow room, our environment is built around comfort and care. You’ll find separate reception areas for cats and dogs, species-specific kennels, an isolation ward, and a fully equipped in-house lab with external support from IDEXX. Our clinical facilities include a generous prep room, a well-organised theatre, a dedicated X-ray room, and ultrasound. Behind the scenes, our two shared offices and staff room (well-stocked with tea, coffee, and plenty of snacks!) give the team space to unwind and stay connected.

At inspiring vet care, our people are at the heart of everything we do. As the UK’s number one vet care provider, we're trusted with the care of over 2 million animals, delivering our purpose of healthier animals and happier owners.

Miramar Vets has proudly served the Sheringham community for more than 50 years. We regularly support charities including Cats Protection and Guide Dogs for the Blind, and we’re actively involved locally from school visits to running dog shows at the community carnival. Being part of Miramar means being part of something meaningful.

Practice Highlights

We’re proud to offer a full IDEXX suite, ultrasound, dedicated X-ray facilities, endoscope, bronchoscope, and a wide range of supportive equipment to make your day smoother. Dental X-ray is also on the way. As an ISFM Silver practice and a Dog Friendly accredited practice, we’re committed to delivering outstanding standards for pets and owners alike.
You’ll be joining a friendly and highly skilled team of four vets, one of whom holds a dental certificate, alongside five RVNs, one SVN, one VCA, four receptionists and our Practice Manager. We’re always happy to support certificate study for those wanting to further their clinical interests. We’re looking for a patient, confident veterinary surgeon who is strong in surgery and ready to become an integral part of a team that genuinely cares.
Here's what Wiktoria had to say:
"Since joining Miramar Vets earlier this year, I've felt incredibly welcomed and supported. What stands out most is how much everyone genuinely cares, not only about patients and clients, but also about each other. The team works together brilliantly, always willing to help and share knowledge, creating an environment where you can thrive and enjoy coming to work every day.
Miramar also embraces individuality and neurodiversity, recognising that everyone's unique strengths contribute to the success of the team.
There is a real commitment to investing in people, supporting personal development, and ensuring everyone has opportunities to grow. Alongside this, the practice continually invests in new equipment and facilities to provide the very best patient care. Recent examples include a brand-new dental radiography unit and the upgrade from CR to DR radiography, helping us deliver more efficient diagnostics and an even better service to our patients.

Being just a stone's throw from the coast is an added bonus. Whether it's a walk along the beach before work or a chance to unwind by the sea afterwards, it's a lovely place to live and work, and I'm truly proud to be a part of this team."
