Focus on Bovine feedlot and cow/calf production medicine
Our Goal is to get you as much hands on experience as possible in palpation, calvings, c-sections, calf processing, internal medicine and general herd health. 8 months out of the year we are taking portable hydraulic chutes into the country where you can get a first hand experience working with the ranchers and cattle. The big advantage we have is our small animal part of the clinic is busy year round so you can get the feel for what a true mixed practice feels like, we are 50% small and 50% large animal.
Mixed animal practice - dairy, beef, companion animal predominent. Small amout of equine, small ruminant.
The internship will consist of daily herd health management, preventive medicine (husbandry practices and vaccination), diagnosis, treatment and gathering a clinical history to solve problems for swine producers. There will also be exposure to Pork Quality Assurance, Judicious Antibiotic Use and Welfare Audits.
Rural mixed animal practice with several surgeries daily, and small animal appointments. Large animal OB work, including calvings and pregnancy checking. We also cover a sale barn and work a lot of cattle in the spring and fall.
We are a unique opportunity! We are a full service general practice, BUT we also do HQHVSN. We also do about 50% shelter/rescues/TNR. There is plenty of surgery experience to be had! However, there is also general medicine and even some shelter medicine. We are currently a very busy two doctor practice with a large support team.

There will be no formal didactic teaching but case based with physical examinations, interaction with pets, doctors at multiple locations and a high surgical case load.
Experience is tailored to individual student goals (which we ask for prior to externship period). Students are allowed to choose cases during the day which appeal to them and hands-on participation is encouraged. Depending on the case load, students have the opportunity to practice day one skills including (but not limited to): feedlot processing, castration, pregnancy diagnosis, chute operation, physical exam, field necropsy, diagnostic sample collection and interpretation, foot work, dystocia, client communication, ect on the large animal side. Small animal work consists of attending appointments with a DVM, participating in sick animal work ups and surgical cases.
