Veterinary Extern - General Practice

Externship at Gull Lake Animal Hospital At Gull Lake Animal Hospital, we are very client‑relationship focused. We prefer to develop long‑term, strong relationships with our clients. An externship experience at an NVA hospital will give students the unique 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, we all have some things in common: an environment that is supportive, committed to excellent medicine, and provides exceptional service to animals and the people who love them. Students will work closely with the supervising veterinarian to gain experience in gathering patient histories, performing physical exams, creating 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. Eligibility and Stipend Veterinary students in the clinical portion of their education are eligible for a travel/living expense stipend. Stipend amounts and details are available on the NVA website.
