Description of Elective Experience:
- MedVet veterinary student externships are designed for fourth-year veterinary students seeking additional training and experience at a small animal emergency and specialty referral practice.
- The MedVet specialty and emergency externship program provides a structured clinical experience supervised by experienced emergency doctors and board-certified specialists in a variety of specialties. Depending on your externship location, experiences may include anesthesia & analgesia, avian & exotics, cardiology, critical care, dentistry & oral surgery, dermatology, emergency medicine, internal medicine, integrative medicine, neurology & neurosurgery, medical oncology, ophthalmology, radiation oncology, radiology, rehabilitation, and/or surgery.
- As a MedVet extern, you will be part of a well-designed training program that provides you with the experience to complete your veterinary education. Externs have many opportunities for participation in journal clubs, daily clinical rounds, formal rounds, assist with the management of emergency cases, medical and surgical cases, and interact with many MedVet interns, residents, specialists, and technicians.
- The duration of MedVet externships vary but are most often two weeks. Students are responsible for their own accommodations. Schedules can often be flexible as most MedVet locations are open 24/7.
