Veterinary Extern - General Practice

Overview Join to apply for the Veterinary Extern - General Practice role at NVA General Practice. An externship experience at an NVA hospital will give students the opportunity to understand the day-to-day operations of the practice, and to gain valuable hands-on clinical experience. Although every NVA hospital is unique, they share a common environment: supportive, committed to excellent medicine, and providing exceptional service to animals and the people who love them. Responsibilities Work closely with the supervising Associate Veterinarians to gain experience in gathering patient histories, performing physical exams, creation of treatment plans, diagnostics, dentistry services, observing/assisting or performing surgical procedures, and medical management of patients. Practice communication skills with the medical team, support staff, and clients. Program details Most externship experiences range from two to eight weeks depending on student and hospital schedules. All veterinary students (regardless of class year) are encouraged to participate in NVA externships. Veterinary students who are in the clinical portion of their education are eligible for a travel/living expense stipend. #J-18808-Ljbffr NVA General Practice
