Our hospital is open 7 days a week; students will assist doctors in exams (taking histories, handling etc) for well and sick pets. Observe and assist in surgery and all other positions in the hospital, and assist the ward nurses. This is done in an effort to provide the student with a full understanding and appreciation of how a hospital functions. 7% of our practice is Exotic and small mammals.
We are a large 10,000 sq ft. AAHA practice, with 3 additional locations. Our 12 doctor staff rotates offices. Our main hospital is very well equipped with 6 exam rooms, surgery suite, dental suite, prep and treatment areas. At OCVH we have digital x-ray, ultrasound, laparoscopic surgical equipent, rigid endoscopy, laser therapy, full surgical monitoring, digital x-ray and new dental equipment.
Students will do as much as their grade level, experience and capabilities dictate.
