Description of Elective Experience:

Our goal is for the student to gain real world experience with small animal medicine and surgery. We will push the student to step out of their comfort zone and not simply follow our doctor around. We will arrange for some surgeries from our local shelter to help gain more experience in spays and neuters. Gaining time in communicating with the clients is important and one we think can be difficult for students.
