We pride ourselves in having a practice that provides high quality of medicine, while at the same time being a high volume practice. Our small animal medicine ranges from spaying/neutering to tumor and soft tissue surgery to internal medicine and wellness exams. Our large animal side ranges from DA/csections to internal medicine and herd health on cows/horses/goats/sheep/pigs.
Furthermore, another aspect of veterinary medicine is the understanding of the business/money part. As a result, we expose all of onsite volunteers/veterinary students to the fact that we work a difficult job that does not pay us for what we are worth, but at the same time we work in a profession that can give you a quality of life that you cannot get in other fields.
In closing, our practice enjoys teaching and giving students/volunteers the opportunity to experience what is great about this profession. At the same time we help them to understand what is not so great. Thus, we allow them to be exposed to the many aspects of the profession that a person will encounter working in a rural community mixed animal practice.
