Veterinary Extern - General Practice

Woodburn Veterinary Clinic is a progressive small animal hospital with a sister clinic close by to allow additional mentoring and experience. Both clinics are located close to the beach in central Oregon and offer a lot of outdoor activities. At each location, we have multiple doctors that are excited to mentor with a good variety of medical and surgical cases. Both practices have a comfortable, family atmosphere with great clients and staff. 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. Externships at Woodburn Veterinary Clinic are offered to 3rd and 4th year veterinary students. Veterinary students who are in the clinical portion of their education are eligible for a travel/living expense stipend.
