We have a 24 hour veterinary hospital. During the day we operate as a traditional hospital seeing routine and non-routine cases(vaccines, dermatitis etc...). We typically have 3 or 4 doctors seeing regular appointments. We see quite a few emergency walk ins during the day also and have 2-3 doctors dedicated to the ER side during the day. In the evening(after 7pm) we transition to an emergency hospital and everything is walk in only. We have an in house lab with 2 Med Techs running it, digtal x-ray and 2 ultrasound units, digital dental x-ray with multiple high speed units, and endoscopy . A typical externship involves some time on day shift, some time spent on weekend shift and some time spent on overnight/emergency shifts. We try to expose the students to all aspects of our practice. We also have an internal medicine specialist here 4 days a week and a surgeon here 3 days a week.
We have 16 doctors on staff
Access to VIN, textbooks and journals
We expect someone motivated, professional and interested in learning but we also hope to pick up some new ideas from students. We typically schedule them for 40 hours/week to fulfill the requirements of the externship.
No housing available but we do offer a stipend of $350.00/week to help offset this cost.
