Students doing an externship at Charles River Ashland will spend time learning about laboratory animal medicine as well as pathology. Working with the laboratory animal veterinarians, they will observe surgeries and/or treatments of laboratory animal species including but not limited to canines, rodents, and non-human primates. Additionally, students will spend time in necropsy observing post mortem examinations on these species. Time spent in pathology will include independent review of current and/or past study material followed by discussion with study pathologists over findings including common background lesions in laboratory animal species. Additionally, the student will spend time in the clinical pathology department discussing various laboratory tests and reviewing study material. Time permitting, the student will have an opportunity to interact with study directors to learn about study design at prestudy meetings.
We are a four doctor mixed animal practice in Wayne County, Ohio. A significant portion of the practice is bovine reproduction and herd health work. In addition, we also work routinely with equine, goats, sheep and alpacas and typically have 3 of the 4 veterinarians working out of their mobile units on farm visits. The practice generally encompasses three counties with much of the mobile services being large dairy farms and then also the backyard client. Typically, the fourth veterinarian is scheduled in the office serving the companion animal needs of the practice. The clinic is located in West Salem, Ohio and serves many of the rural as well as the local Amish communities in the area. As a student, you will be observing and participating where appropriate with the numerous responsibilities of the veterinarian that you are scheduled to shadow for the day - working with both the large and small veterinarians throughout the course of your experience with us.
