We are a 5 doctor ambulatory only practice that practices high quality field and surgical care. The student would rotate between doctors based on interests and level excitement in a particular doctors schedule.
The student would ride daily with a doctor while assisting with the day’s schedule and certainly gain some experience in palpation of our broodmare population, assist with lameness and blocking horses while getting the chance to x-ray and/or ultrasound. We perform many field surgeries, and they would have the opportunity to gain experience there.
The practice has around 400 foals annually and therefore the ability to gain knowledge in neonatal care and disease.
We host “rounds” weekly when time permits, which our extens have really seemed to enjoy.
Volume of daily workload exposes the students to many different cases and allows for discussions while in the trucks.
Staffing consists of 5 doctors, 4 technicians, and 3 office personnel, and a billing administrator.
We have 7 ultrasound machines, 4 digital xray units, gastroscopy, 4 upper airway videoscopes, shockwave, IRAP, PRP, Prostride, CBC, Chemistry, Fibrinogen, Serum amyloid A, in-house cultures, autoclaves,
We expect the student to be present and available daily for the workload of their choice based on the doctor they choose to ride with. As an ambulatory practice, they are expected to leave and end daily when the final appointment is fulfilled.
We work typically Monday-Friday 7am to 5pm.
We do not rely on students for actual support. We are staffed accordingly and it should be an opportunity to learn.
