The externship will be mixed between large and small animal. We allow students to ride along with a doctor 2-3 days per week if they are interested in large animal with the rest of the time spent in small animal. We have an orthopedic surgeon, cardiologist, ophthalmologist, and behaviorist that come in weekly. There are 8 large animal doctors and 28 small animal doctors. We are open 24 hours so if emergency medicine is something the student is interested in, they can complete some emergency training at our facility.
Students are required to complete at least 40 hours per week with a licensed doctor. They must complete all requirements from their school as well. If a student needs to have the day off (i.e. sickness, NAVLE testing, family issue) they will be able to make up their time on a weekend or complete an emergency shift overnight.
