Our shelter has a robust surgical and medical program - we do routine S/N surgeries plus almost any other soft tissue surgery necessary, plus a few orthopedic procedures - mainly FHOs and amputations. Additionally we have dental xray and two dental stations. We have digital xray and a two-table surgery suite.
We also opened a public clinic in a separate location in 2022 that serves 5 zip codes in Toledo, providing access to care in an urban setting.
We have 6 RVTs and 4 veterinarians on staff plus additional assistants.
Both our shelter and our clinic have digital xray and dental xray, our shelter has two dental stations (two Midmark dental machines) and a two-table surgery suite, our clinic has one dental station and a two-table surgery suite.
The student is welcome to work either just at the clinic or at the shelter, or a combination of both. They will receive lots of surgical experience at the shelter.
