Description of Elective Experience:
Our externship experience is designed to offer you clinical experience outside of the classroom walls. Our externships range from two to eight weeks in length; however, most students spend two weeks at our practice.
Externs experience the typical caseload of a small animal practice. Under the supervision of your mentor doctor, you will gather histories, perform physical examinations, develop diagnostic and therapeutic plans, scrub in to surgery, assist in the management of medical cases, provide wellness care, develop your client communication skills, polish your technical skills and produce appropriate medical records (SOAPs) within the time limits of daily practice.
