Veterinary Extern - General Practice

Hospital Name: Kernersville Veterinary Hospital Job Type: Veterinary Extern Description & Requirements Kernersville Veterinary Hospital is mostly a walk-in clinic, so students will get to experience a variety of cases. We do some urgent care as well as wellness appointments. Veterinary students will be exposed to many different experiences at our hospital. Students will work closely with the supervising veterinarian 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. In addition to practicing their clinical skills, student externs will have the opportunity to practice their communication skills with the medical team, support staff, and clients. 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.
