Signature Equine Hospital

Description of Elective Experience

Our hospital features a forward-thinking approach to equine practice and utilizes the latest in technology and equipment. Our practice also includes an off-site breeding facility along with a full rehabilitation clinic. We are a full-service practice providing routine/preventative care, internal medicine and surgery with a focus on sports medicine for our western performance horse athletes.

The goals of the externship are to provide a high level of exposure to broaden the interests and skills of veterinary students.

The extern will have the opportunity to gain hands-on experience in a fast-paced, friendly environment. This program will provide the extern with enough clinical exposure to pursue further studies in areas of interest in equine medicine.

Our programs focus on:

  • Further enhancing diagnostic skills.
  • Increasing hands-on knowledge base in areas including sports medicine, internal medicine, surgery, reproduction, and imaging.
  • Sharpening client relationship, management, and communication skills.
  • Exposure to staff and procedures not found anywhere else.
