Adobe Animal hospital has 2 locations - a day practice in Los Gatos and a day practice with ER Capability and overnight hospitalization in Los Altos, CA. Students shadow veterinarians, take histories, do exams, come up with treatment plans for preventative care and urgent care. They may also assist in surgery and dentistry.
Fully staffed hospital/clinic with 15 veterinarians between the two sights, credentialed technicians and hospital assistants
Students work 40-50 hrs/wk, typically 8-10 hr shifts. They are assigned to specific DVMs each day who directly supervise and work with them. We typically have students on the weekdays rather than the weekends because there is more staff on duty available to help them. Students don't have primary case responsibility - they may assist the vet but they are not doing treatments etc.
