Opportunities for soft tissue surgeries include OHE, BOD, small mass removals, dental cleanings, abdominal exploratory, cystotomy, gastropexy, surgical biopsy, cryosurgery, electrocautery, other.
The student will be submerged into both small and large animal work. They can chose to go on large animal call or stay in house for surgeries or appointments with small animals. We have 4 doctors in the practice that the student will work with. We start the students with shadowing, but as they gain comfort, will be allowed to lead an appointment along side another vet guidance. We also have local farmers that will bring in barn cats for students to gain experience in spay/neutering. We have numerous herd healths performed weekly for the student to gain palpating experience with the potential of also learning with an ultrasound.
Student will be permitted to shadow and participate as she is comfortable under the supervision of a licensed veterinarian.
