Our hospital is open 24/7 and offer services for canine, feline and exotic species. The entire hospital is 14,000 sqft with a 3,000sqft Intensive Care Unit, Exotic Ward, CT, ultrasound, 11 exam rooms, Isolation Ward, Dental Suite, Double Surgery Suites and more. We have over 20 DVMs including specialists and over 130 total staff members. We welcome clinical year veterinary students for rotations that can be customizable due to our complex and varied caseload. Rotations can include ER, ICU, Exotics, Imaging, Surgery, Dentistry and GP. All species are seen in all of those areas so exposure to exotic species happens in each department.
Extern students will be paired with DVMs and have hands on learning experiences with Exotics in Surgery, ICU, ER, GP and Imaging. Our externs continually rate our hospital as one of their favorite externship sites and they feel that the learning opportunities far exceed their expectations.
