Attention:
The Colorado Workers' Compensation Act requires student interns to be covered by workers' compensation insurance. Ohio State is not able to add students to its institutional workers' compensation policy. Prior to scheduling an externship in Colorado, students must work with their externship supervisor to ensure that Colorado worker's compensation insurance requirements will be met. Proof of worker's compensation coverage must be sent to Dr. Emma Read for verification. If a student is not covered by a worker's compensation policy for their externship they will not earn academic credit for the rotation.

Students will be immersed in real life mixed animal practice serving an 80 mile radius with 7 communities, with a variety of emergency, medical and surgical cases. Receiving referral cases from over 8 other clinics in the area ensures a plethora of learning opportunities not available in a university setting. With 4 doctors on staff and ample support staff, a rounded approach to medicine is presented. Students leave with progressed surgical skills, ability to manage caseloads and an understanding the logistics of running a hospital. Undoubtedly more prepared for a rewarding career in a changing and challenging profession.
