Big Valley Animal Hospital, PA

Description of Elective Experience

Small animal practice seeing a large caseload of medical and surgical cases.  FEAR FREE hospital completed in July of 2019. One of PA's most modern veterinary facilities!

Institutional and Educational Resources - staffing, equipment, etc.

Case discussions occur on a daily basis amongst all the doctors for more involved or unusual cases.  Large caseload allows for exposure to a broad spectrum of learning opportunities.  24/7 access to internet.  Over 30 years of practice experience among the doctors to share with students.

Student Responsibilities - what is expected of students in terms of hours, days of the week, shadowing or actual support?

We work closely with a local cat rescue, providing the student an excellent opportunity to perform routine surgeries.  Student will be expected to participate in case work-ups on a daily basis.  It is our hope to expose the student to an intense, two week period of all types of medical and surgical cases seen in private practice.
