SynergyVets Testimonials
Tiago Moura - Locum Vet
Synergy Vets has consistently impressed me with their excellent communication skills. They proactively email available locum jobs daily, ensuring timely updates. What sets them apart is their prompt responsiveness; inquiries and emails are replied to on the same day, sometimes on the hour! Lacey and Emillie in particular, are stand out professionals, making Synergy Vets the top choice for locum services in my experience."
Michael Konzon - i4 Sales Director
‘i4 have had the privilege of working alongside Synergy Vets for over a decade to ensure locums are paid on time, every time for their work. Synergy Vets are a leading recruitment agency in their field, and have lead the way in veterinary recruitment for the better part of two decades. They are a pleasure to work alongside, with friendly and knowledgeable staff who put the wishes of their locums first’
Gosia Madej - Locum RVN
'For many years, I had considered locum work, but concerns about finding enough work, determining rates, payment methods, and handling yearly tax returns made me postpone it. Synergy Vets came to my aid, addressing all my questions and guiding me through my locuming journey. They introduced me to diverse practices, from small first opinion branches to expansive referral hospitals, making my career challenging and exciting again. Everyone at Synergy Vets I've encountered has been professional, competent, friendly and supportive. I am confident in relying on their expertise and have been recommending them to anyone contemplating locuming.'
Anonymous - Locum Vet
I feel that Synergy creates a friendly feeling to me and I can be honest and share my needs with the team (especially Jenna). They are always responding back to my e-mails, and they are always replying to my calls. They keep me updated for new jobs in my area and they adjust my needs to the employers needs and they support me. Since I started working as a Locum vet, I am using Synergy.
Emma Greene - Locum RVN
"I have been a locum nurse for a few years now and have built up my own network of practices.
I did find myself with a work gap and contacted a number of recruitment agencies. I generally found the service to be poor; lack of contact, disregard for location, and general lack of interest for a short term placement to name but a few.
I contacted Synergy and he asked questions such as which areas I wanted to go to, any specific practices I wanted to avoid and the kind of nursing I enjoyed.
I really felt that he was bothered about where I was placed, compared to many others who were only concerned with placing any nurse in any practice.
Charlie contacted me very quickly after my initial call and had an ideal practice for me to work in.
I find it's far too easy to make our feelings known when something is wrong, but not so much when someone does a good job and Charlie has done a first class job. He had given me confidence in your company, with efficiency, professionalism and care.
I would recommend Charlie to other colleagues and feels it's important to highlight someone who is truly good at their job".
Angie Pryce - Locum RVN
“I was recommended Synergy Vets recruitment by a locum vet that was working at my old practice at the time and I can’t recommend them highly enough.
Since day one just over two years ago now I have had no problems with their kind support and service. In particular, Lacey who was so supportive in the beginning and put me at ease. My whole locum experience has been so positive with them I’ve never felt I had to look anywhere else for my work. Any queries have been dealt with swiftly and professionally. When there was a problem with a booking Lacey found me another job straight away. Thank you Synergy for great two and a bit years”
Chloe - Locum Vet
"I have been absolutely thrilled with the bookings and the services I have received from Jemma at Synergy. Thank you very much for making my first go at locuming so easy! I would definitely use Synergy again, and I would recommend you guys to friends."
Debbie Smith RVN
My new adventure as a locum nurse was really well supported by Synergy and particularly Lacey who was incredibly helpful with her personal and friendly communication. I asked many questions,all of which were answered rapidly, even the ones that were really outside of her remit! I also had her full understanding when I unfortunately had to cancel a shift due to personal reasons. This was the the only agency out of four that I joined that actually seemed to read my CV and requirements and match me up to appropriate jobs. What could have been a more daunting foray was made easy by this agency and especially Lacey. Thank you all very much.
Hazel Byland - Locum Vet Nurse
I started locuming 22mths ago and although I registered with a number of agencies, Synergy were always my number 1 choice. All the staff are so friendly, helpful & professional, especially Lacey who goes that extra mile. I would receive the usual regular listings but any personal contacts from Lacey would never result in the usual unsuitable locations, unwanted hours or job specifications. It was so easy & simple for myself & the client. I now work permanently for a locum position introduced by Lacey & would happily recommend anyone else to make Synergy their number 1 choice too.
Marc Townsend - Account Manager, FPS Umbrella
I would highly recommend Synergy Vets as your first point of contact if you are looking for work within the Veterinary sector and also for end clients if you are looking for first class Locum/permanent Vet/Vet Nurses. Synergy Vets provide a first class service with the utmost integrity and always think about their candidates first to place them in a role they are looking for. Freelance Professional Services (FPS) have been helping Synergy Vets and their contractors maximise their take home pay since 2011. Lauren Tate and the team at Synergy Vets are extremely efficient at placing their candidates i couldn't recommend them highly enough.
Louise Golden – Locum Vet, West Yorkshire
A great team to work with, especially Jemma, who managed to get me work within an hour of uploading my CV!! I get regular emails with updates on jobs available in the region, but Jemma rings with positions available closer to home, really personalising the service. Very simple to join, hassle free booking of jobs and prompt payment, effortless and worry free. A great experience from start to finish, thanks.
Tracy Oakes, Practice Manager/Director - Vetcare Limited
Vetcare Limited is a Small Animal Companion practice in the Lancashire and Cheshire area, with sites in Leigh, Bolton, Hindley and Sale. We have had a relationship with Synergy Vets since September 2011 and have been provided with a dedicated point of contact that responses to our locum needs in an astute, rapid and friendly manner. In addition, Synergy invoices the practice direct for locum services and thus remove the burden of payroll administration and similar with respect to employment status and tax. From my experiences I would have no hesitation recommending their services whatsoever.
Kathryn Allan, Locum Vet - Glasgow
''This will be my last placement with Synergy as I have started a PhD/clinical training programme in Glasgow this week, but I wanted to say that I have been very impressed with the agency and have always been pleased with the standards of the placements and the efficiency of your staff. In particular Aaron and Lacey deserve a mention as they have always been extremely helpful. My recent experience has only confirmed the high standards of support you provide your locum vets - Synergy was recommended to me because of this and I have absolutely no hesitations in recommending you on to friends and colleagues''
Rachel Davis, Locum Vet - Herefordshire

Shannon Gardner, Director at I4 Group UK Ltd - Umbrella Company
"The i4 Group has worked with Synergy Vets and their contractors for the last few years, providing them with our Limited Company solutions. In this time, the Synergy Vets team have always been extremely professional and helpful, in both their dealings with their contractors and also the team at the i4 Group. Synergy Vets always go the extra mile for their contractors and an example of this is that they have learnt all that they about Limited Company solutions, so that their contractors will have every opportunity to maximise their income that they earn through Synergy Vets.

Jenny Maud, Locum Vet - London
''SynergyVets have always been very friendly and professional, and have managed to fill pretty much all my available time with enjoyable placements in practices that suit me well geographically. They have never bombardment me with requests to work in the Outer Hebrides when I'm keen for work in London! Practices I've worked for have commented that Synergy have a reputation for providing reliable good quality locums.''
Diana Gilliland, RVN - Northamptonshire
"I have been locuming through SynergyVets for the past six months and cant find a fault with them. Everyone i have dealt with are professional and easy to talk to. I feel i have always got support and the comfort that they have my best interests in mind. I would recommend SynergyVets to anyone with the confidence that they would not let you down. I can honestly say that i would not use any other agency and due to their achievements so far feel loyal to them."
Victoria Smith, RVN - Kent
''I found SynergyVets very satisfying! After struggling to find a job nearer to home I contacted SynergyVets. They were very helpful and professional and listened to what I wanted. They immediately began their search and within 2 days I had an interview! I loved the practice and was offered the job! I'm extremely grateful as the job is perfect and my life can only get better! I would definitely recommend their service!''
Lara Archer, Group Practice Manager - Petcare Veterinary Clinics, London
''I have been using SynergyVets for a couple of years now and I am always really impressed at the service I receive and the quality of candidates. I know that every vet or nurse that Synergy send over will be tried, tested and properly vetted and will have the right level of experience that I am looking for. Lacey never cease to amaze me how often they manage to find me a fantastic vet even at very short notice when i need emergency cover. I cant recommend them enough!''

July 2011, Louise Rodgers, Locum RVN - Edinburgh
"I have used Synergy for a year and have been deeply impressed by the consistency and frequency of the placements that have been found for me. Synergy have taken the time to match my skill set and preferences with the placements and the whole team from James, my dedicated consultant, to the payroll team are professional, reliable and friendly. They provide ongoing support once I am at my placement, which is invaluable when you're a long way from home."
Jenny Everton, Hospital Administrator - Stone Lion Veterinary Hospital, London
''Goddard Vet Group South West Region have been using Synergy recruitment since 2009. We have always found the team to be very friendly and helpful in sometimes very challenging situations and often find locums at the “drop a hat”. They are very professional and forth coming with advice and help where they can. We are very lucky to have them.''
