Description of Elective Experience:

We offer a student hands on experience in a slower paced, small town environment at Southern Indiana Equine veterinary clinic and farm. This is a tremendous opportunity for experience with equine reproduction including foaling, breeding, semen evaluation, and live cover experience with multiple breeds and performance level horses. On the equine side, we have a strong equine dental practice, performance horse maintenance, and a lot of preventative medicine and care. We offer the ability for digital imaging, ultrasound, and equine endoscopy.

We offer a hands-on opportunity for a student(s) to assist with foaling, as we routinely foal out between 55 to 75 mares a year.

We also have a full-time small animal clinic with many routine clients, surgeries, and in-house blood work and lab experience.

Description of Elective Experience:

Typically in other student clinical externships, students see appointments, as well as drop off, urgent cares, and surgeries with their doctor. Our doctors perform preventative surgeries like spays and neuters, as well as dental cleanings and basic extractions weekly, but also regularly perform mass removals, some orthopedic procedures, as well as pyometras and cystotomies. We have a boarded surgeon who travels to us to perform TPLO's as well as fracture repair and amputations as needed by our clients. Imaging with radiography and ultrasound are performed on a daily basis for diagnosis also. We have an in house laboratory, but do send quite a bit to a reference lab for our doctors review and relaying to clients. 

We are still 100% curbside service due to the ongoing pandemic and therefore the experience with appointments in our practice will be very different than previous externships. We should also note, should things change per executive orders from our Governor or Ohio's, we will continue to be compliant with any restrictions set forth by them pertaining to services, essential employees, etc.
