O'Brien Veterinary Group, IL

Description of Elective Experience

If you’ve got at least a year of veterinary school under your belt, keep the learning going in our specially designed externship programs. You’ll end up not only with more clinical experience under the mentorship of future colleagues but also an introduction to owning and running a successful veterinary practice. Better yet: Our externships are tailored to the students filling them, and we reimburse expenses.

Our externships position you for future success

The veterinary world is changing quickly, and you’ll need all the skills you can get to thrive as a veterinarian. We aim to build on your veterinary school experiences, with real-life business skills in a clinical setting, providing a foundation for future professional and personal growth.

Clinical experience is just the beginning

 An O’Brien externship will expand your horizon when it comes to business skills, even as you grow your clinical skills under the mentorship of your future colleagues. You’ll learn how to make a practice profitable, knowledge that is of value whether you’ll choose to be an associate or a practice owner.

Our approach to veterinary medicine is innovative

In our group, you’ll find a veterinary-centered approach to running a practice. Our veterinarians aren’t held to a cookie-cutter standard. We support their skill and their knowledge, and let them decide what’s best for the clients and the pets we all love.
