Our externs will experience what is it like to work in a busy suburban small animal hospital. They will accoumpany our doctors into exam rooms, help work-up sick pets, assist in surgery and help with interpretation of diagnostic results.
Students will work along side the specialists (we have ECC, IM, Surgery, Cardiology-these options are not available to select above) or emergency service to manage hospitalized and out patient cases. They will be involved in physical exam, developing a plan, interpretation of diagnostic tests, client communication.
