Additional Information about Program

RESIDENCY PROGRAM IN LARGE ANIMAL MEDICINE: LIVESTOCK EMPHASIS

• Provide advanced training in large animal medicine of broad scope, involving all domestic large animal species, with an emphasis on food animal species.

• Provide clinical teaching experience.

• Provide appropriate experience in the design and implementation of an investigative project in a clinically related area.

• Work with Board Certified faculty and to prepare residents for Board Certification in Internal Medicine (ACVIM-LAIM).

• Develop expertise in clinical large animal medicine, food animal surgery, and reproduction.

Justification

The clinical training program described herein is designed to produce veterinary internists who are trained in a wide scope of livestock medicine and surgery, and to allow the resident to fulfill the requirements for ACVIM LAIM certification.

Internal medicine of large animal species is a recognized clinical specialty. Excellence in livestock practice and herd health management is based upon the practice of high quality diagnostics, medicine, surgery and utilization of computerized records. Treatment of diseases in small ruminants is an important aspect of many livestock practices. The program stresses clinical case management. Some aspects of production medicine are introduced, especially in the areas of reproduction, calf health and milk quality, in the problem-solving of referred medicine cases, and utilization of computerized records. Graduates should be well prepared for clinical academic positions, industry, practice and federal agencies.

Qualifications

Applicants for a residency in Large Animal Medicine: Livestock Emphasis must have a DVM or equivalent degree and must have completed a one-year internship or comparable post-graduate training or practice experience.

Duration

The duration of the residency program is 3 years. Renewal for the second and third years will be contingent upon satisfactory performance. The resident may be able to continue in a Master's or PhD program in an area of interest following completion of the residency. Funding for such a program is secured through extramural grant requests and is not part of residency funding.

General Scope and Nature of Training

First Year Program:

• The resident is provided one month of scheduled paid vacation. The remaining 11 months are allocated approximately as follows: 5-6 months in the in-clinic Food Animal Medicine and Surgery Service, 1 month in radiology/ultrasound, 2 months in the Livestock Reproduction and Herd Health Service, 1-2 months in the Equine Medicine or Equine Field Services, and 1 month of professional development time out of clinics. Residents shall have primary patient care responsibilities, under the supervision of a senior clinician, and will develop an understanding of the general concepts of disease processes and case management in cattle, goats, sheep, pigs, and to a lesser extent, horses. This will include management of routine cases as well as referred cases. Since the case load will involve several species of large animals and problems involving all body systems, the clinical exposure should develop the broadest possible competency. Skill with the use of ultrasound will be developed both for pregnancy diagnosis and to aid with medical diagnoses. Ancillary facilities such as radiology are frequently used. Management of livestock surgical cases by the resident will develop surgical proficiency. Initially, surgical procedures will be performed with a senior clinician. As proficiency is gained by the resident, the routine procedures will be performed autonomously.

Competency in routine and special diagnostic procedures will be developed. Another primary objective will be the development of clinical maturity and judgment.

• Residents will gain experience in evaluating reproductive problems and in the management of reproduction programs on large dairy farms, sheep flocks, and goat herds. Residents will acquire palpation skills, skills with ultrasound, and gain experience in the surgical treatment of reproductive problems. Residents will become familiar with and have limited responsibility for computerized data storage and retrieval, calf health monitoring and milk quality.

• Residents will have the opportunity to develop their teaching skills and will have a major role as clinical instructors. This duty will be performed, in part, by assisting in the tutorial teaching of first, second, third and senior veterinary students and conducting clinic rounds. Experience lecturing to large groups will be provided in the seminar/rounds format.

Residents will receive assistance and guidance in the preparation and delivery of peer reviewed literature and lectures.

• Residents will develop the ability to critically evaluate veterinary literature and will obtain the broad scientific base which is critical to an understanding of medical problems. The resident is encouraged to use the medical library and computer assisted learning programs, and to attend as many campus seminars as possible. A trip to a major meeting such as the AABP or ACVIM is encouraged and funding may be provided from resident training funds to help defray expenses. When scheduling trips, priority is given to second and third year residents when conflicts arise.

• Residents share out-of-hours emergency duty on a rotational basis.

Second and Third Year Programs

• Duties will be similar to those of the first year, but with increasing responsibility for patient management. Residents will have some supervisory responsibility for training and supervision of first-year residents. One month of paid vacation is allowed each year. The second year resident will have 1 to 2 months and the third-year resident 2 months of out-of-clinics professional development time for research and studying (in addition to 1 month vacation). Professional development time is to allow the resident time to complete projects and prepare for Large Animal Internal Medicine Specialty Board

Examinations.

• Residents will develop expertise in a specific area of internal medicine. Residents will be encouraged to attend and participate in seminars and conferences oriented toward their particular areas of special interest. Guidance in the development of this special area of expertise shall be the responsibility of the Chief of Service or another medicine service faculty member with allied interests.

• The second and third year residents will be required to undertake an investigational project in some phases of livestock medicine. The project should have approval from the Chief of Service. Publication of a paper in a refereed journal is expected. Second and third year residents must present (oral presentation) research study findings at the VMTH House

Officer Seminar Day program, and are encouraged to present a paper at the annual ACVIM Meeting.

• Residents share out-of-hours emergency duty on a rotational basis.

The VMTH is committed to building strong relationships with its constituents. A major part of the residents duties, therefore, includes timely communication with referring veterinarians and clients.

FOR APPLICATION PROCEDURES AND OTHER INFORMATION ABOUT THE RESIDENCY PROGRAM, PLEASE SEE GENERAL

INFORMATION ON THE VMTH WEB SITE, or email Sarah Depenbrock, smdepenbrock@ucdavis.edu 

SELECTION WILL BE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE GUIDELINES OF THE VETERINARY INTERNSHIP/RESIDENCY MATCHING PROGRAM.

The University of California, Davis, and the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital are interested in candidates who are committed to the highest standards of scholarship and professional activities, and to the development of a campus climate that supports equality and diversity.

RESIDENTS MUST BE ABLE TO ARRIVE AT THE HOSPITAL WITHIN 15 MINUTES OF AN EMERGENCY CALL, THEREFORE, RESIDENTS MUST PLAN TO LIVE WITHIN 15 MILES OF THE HOSPITAL.

SPECIAL NOTE: The California Veterinary Medical Board requires all veterinarians working at the University of California, Davis with primary patient care duties to hold a full California license or a University veterinary license. To obtain a University veterinary license, veterinarians who are not licensed in the state of California will be required to take a 3-day course on regionally-important diseases and a short open-book jurisprudence test, in addition to being background checked. The course will be provided by live webinar at the University of California, Davis School of Veterinary Medicine, usually in April. The cost of obtaining the University veterinary license will be the responsibility of the trainee. The limited license only permits individuals to work in California as veterinarians for University-related practice.

This position is a critical position and subject to a background check. Employment is contingent upon successful completion of background investigation including criminal history and identity checks.

Student Externship in western Massachusetts

Feeding Hills Veterinary Clinic is a 4-doctor small animal practice, located just outside of Springfield, MA.  www.feedinghillsvet.com 

We are 2 hours from Boston, 3 hours from NYC, 30 minutes from Hartford, CT and 20 minutes from our local airport, Bradley International Airport (Hartford/Springfield area).  

We are open from 8:30am to 5:30pm, Monday through Friday only.  We are a privately owned clinic (DVMom owned) that was purchased in Dec 2020.  We have grown from a solo practice into what we are today.  We use fear free and Cat Friendly principles when handling our patients.

Everything in the clinic has been updated - new digital xrays (we send out all rads for radiology consult), digital dental xray, high speed dental drill, fluid pumps, Bair Huggers, multiparameter anesthesia monitors with capnograph, ultrasound, cold laser, cloud-based medical records, doppler, TonoVet Plus, and in-house lab equipment.  We also offer online appointment scheduling and texting services.  One of our doctors does more advanced surgical procedures - ie FHOs, CCL repairs, gastropexy, etc. 

We typically have 1 to 2 doctors seeing appointments at a time and 1 doctor doing surgeries/dentistries.  We have a total of ~25 support staff plus management.  We have 4 exam rooms and have plans to add another one to two this year.  The surgery doctor has 2-3 dedicated techs.  The appointment doctor has 2-4 dedicated techs (depending upon how they like to run their appointments) PLUS treatment techs, tech appointment techs and floater techs.  We are a highly leveraged clinic.  

The surgery doctor arrives around 7:45am and starts with the presurgical examinations. Depending upon the doctor's comfort level, they are scheduled between 4 and 8 surgeries a day.  The techs do all of the IV catheter placement, induction, monitoring, dental xrays, etc.  Doctors are typically done with surgeries between 1pm and 4pm.  

The appointment doctor arrives around 8:30pm.  Appointments run from 9am to 12pm and then again from 2pm to 5pm.  We schedule 30-minute appointments. We do not do walk-in appointments.  Doctors have the ability to control their schedule, so one doctor prefers to see 15–20-minute appointments.  She is given 4 techs to run this number of appointments efficiently.  We also have drop-off/day admission appointments to be able to accommodate more sick patients into our schedule.  These are done based on the doctor's approval.  Techs do the majority of blood work call backs unless it is a new diagnosis or a complicated case.  

We are willing to help with housing a student.  Either in one of our homes, a local hotel or Airbnb.  There are plenty of Airbnbs and hotels in close driving distance to the clinic. 

We are heavily involved with Andy Roark's Uncharted Group and are constantly looking at ways to improve our team's and clients' experiences. 

Please contact Dr. Caroline Joos at feedinghillsvet@gmail.com with any questions. Thank you!

We work hard to foster a balanced internship, with a mix of direct and indirect supervision, and our interns finish their year with a strong knowledge and clinical skills. Interns rotate through internal medicine, surgery and lameness services under the direct supervision of our senior veterinarians. As their skills increase, interns also see clinical cases, with all case-management decisions still being made under the guidance of our senior veterinarians.

Experiences from past interns:

Program Core Components

We have identified specific skill areas and goals for interns. By the end of the 12-month internship, our graduating interns should be able to comfortably perform the following core components of equine practice:

Surgery:

During their surgery rotations, the intern will assist with a variety of surgical procedures. Commonly performed procedures include orthopedic (especially arthoscopic evaluation and treatment), upper airway, and soft-tissue procedures (especially colic surgery). This exposure is expected to establish basic surgical decision-making and technical skills. Following their internship, most interns will be competent to perform routine, general practice level, procedures and will have obtained the essential training for entry into a surgical residency.

Internal Medicine:

During their internal medicine rotations, the intern will assist with advanced internal medicine procedures and manage complex internal medicine cases. Commonly performed procedures include abdominal and thoracic ultrasound, ultrasound-guided biopsies, echocardiography, gastroscopy, and upper airway endoscopy. Regularly seen cases include diagnosis and treatment of metabolic/endocrine, respiratory, cardiac, gastrointestinal, and neonatal disease. Following their internship, most interns will be competent in performing routine procedures and will have obtained the essential training for entry into an internal medicine residency.

Routine lameness:

Interns are given the opportunity to participate in routine lameness exams and treatments.  We anticipate that they will become comfortable with most routinely performed evaluations and diagnostic procedures, especially including nerve and joint blocks, as well as diagnostic radiology and ultrasound.

Routine Reproductive Care:

Interns will be active in routine reproductive care breeding soundness, transrectal palpation, ultrasonography and artificial insemination.  Interns will also assist in management of problem mares, freezing semen and embryo transfers.

Obtain and Interpret Radiographs:

Interns obtain radiographs of all core anatomic regions, especially including axial skeletal studies (musculoskeletal), but also special exams such as cranial/dental/sinus studies, cervical spine, thoracic and abdominal exams.  They will become experienced in offering evaluation and interpretation of routinely performed studies.

Performing Ultrasound Examinations:

The intern will assist in performing advanced exams, such as complete abdominal and thoracic scans, ultrasound-guided biopsies/injections, transabdominal fetal ultrasound, advanced musculoskeletal exams and echocardiograms.

Perform Endoscopy:

Interns assist with endoscopy and treatment of the upper airway and guttural pouches, and lower respiratory tract.  They also perform endoscopy of gastrointestinal structures, including esophageal and gastroscopic evaluation and treatment.

Performing Routine Dental Treatments:

Interns will become proficient at evaluation and treatment of common dental procedures, including floating, as well as other routine work such as removal of deciduous caps, wolf tooth extraction, etc.  Interns will regularly assist in advanced dental procedures, such as sinus lavage, periodontal treatments and standing cheek-tooth extractions.

Routine and Emergency Field Service:

We see a wide variety of cases on field service and in-house emergency.  Interns will become comfortable with this type of work by the end of their internship. Cases include basic preventative medicine such as vaccination and de-worming, routine surgeries like castrations and Caslick's, and emergencies, especially lacerations and medical colic treatment.

Anesthesia:

Interns will perform injectable and inhalant anesthesia for routine and critical care cases. They will be trained in the use and evaluation of blood gas analysis, constant rate infusions and other advanced techniques.

Professional & Personal Development:

As an active member of the local and regional equine community, we anticipate that each intern will contribute by presenting a talk or writing an article in the local press. (maybe cut this sentence?)  Interns are also exposed to many aspects of veterinary practice management. There are opportunities to dig deeper into aspects of management, including marketing and outreach, establishing financial benchmarks, enhancing profitability, and other areas. We encourage each intern to pursue their interests, veterinary-related and otherwise during their time with us, identifying and communicating their goals to the team.

Interns must obtain a valid California driver’s license, and will be subject to the Employer Pull Notification program for monitoring driving records.

SPECIAL NOTE: The California Veterinary Medical Board requires all veterinarians working at the University of California, Davis with primary patient care duties to hold either a California license or a special University license. To obtain a University license, veterinarians that are not licensed in the state of California will be required to take  a short open-book jurisprudence test, in addition to being background checked.. The cost of licensure will be the responsibility of the trainee (currently $600). This limited license only permits individuals to work in California as veterinarians for University-related practice. Although veterinarians that do not have hands-on patient care duty (e.g., anatomic pathologists, clinical pathologists) are not required to hold this license, obtaining the license is encouraged whenever your activities may have an impact on animal-owning members of the public. If in doubt, please contact the Office of the CVMO for clarification.

Duration
The internship program shall be of one year's duration, commencing August 1, 2023.

About Mission Rabies:

Over 99% of human rabies cases are caused by an infected dog bite. Once symptoms of the disease develop, it is fatal.

Every year, millions of healthy dogs are inhumanely killed for fear of this deadly disease. However, this doesn't halt the spread of rabies, which causes the deaths of around 59,000 people a year – the majority of which are children under 15.

Mission Rabies is changing that.

Science shows that the most effective long-term rabies control strategy is through vaccination of dogs in endemic areas, so we head to rabies hotspots and run mass vaccination and education programmes - protecting both the human and canine populations.

Crucially, it's working. Human deaths in our key project sites have all but been eliminated and we'll keep going until it's zero all around the world.

Be a part of this life-saving mission!

Join us in Cambodia!

In May 2023 we are excited to return to Cambodia to expand on our pilot project, vaccinating the WHOLE PROVINCE of Phnom Penh (that's an estimated 100,000 dogs) in just 10 days! Over the course of the 2 weeks we will be providing life-saving protection to the 2.3 million residents who call the province home, working closely with dedicated local government and charity partners along with other volunteers from around the world. 

Based in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, you'll be working in teams going door-to-door, delivering canine rabies vaccinations. You will be exploring this amazing part of the world and will be trained to use our state-of-the-art WVS Data Collection App. All in a standard days work!

We welcome all volunteers to join this awesome project, whether professionally trained or not, you can play a crucial role in making a difference!

Paid Internship/Externship in veterinary Medicine

Put your Passion to Work!

Internships and externships are on-the-job training programs that give veterinary tech students

and pending DVM graduates the opportunity to shadow and work alongside professionals in the field. While they are both temporary in status, internships are paid and usually last for a semester or season.

Externships are shorter in duration—typically two to six weeks and are unpaid. Both programs offer students and near-graduates valuable real-world experience that’s vital to success in the veterinary field.

Yeah, I Love Animals—But Why Should I Consider A Career In Veterinary Medicine?

Plenty of jobs: There are exponentially more openings for veterinarians, veterinary technicians, and assistants than there are people qualified to fill them. Meanwhile, pet ownership and the demand for veterinary services is growing fast.

Plenty of opportunity: Veterinarians, technicians and assistants can work anywhere in the country and in a variety of animal health related fields: public health, livestock farms and facilities, in research, and at zoos and shelters.

Plenty of fulfillment: No doubt this can be a high-stress profession. But it is also very rewarding. For those who are considering a career in the veterinary industry, helping animals and making a difference in their communities are usually strong motivating factors for their choice. A career in veterinary medicine is the most effective, direct path to achieving those goals.

12 month Professional Internship Program for Graduate Veterinarians:

Montana Equine is seeking qualified applications for a one-year internship in equine internal medicine and surgery. We work hard to foster a balanced internship, with a mix of direct and indirect supervision, and our interns finish their year with a strong knowledge and clinical skills. Interns rotate through internal medicine, surgery and lameness services under the direct supervision of our senior veterinarians. As their skills increase, interns also see clinical cases, with all case-management decisions still being made under the guidance of our senior veterinarians. We also offer a balanced approach to the various facets of real-world practice: our interns are encouraged to develop not just their clinical skills, but also their ability to communicate effectively, since both skills are so critical in successful practice.

Qualifications:

Successful applicants are highly motivated, and interested in working as part of a team of talented equine veterinary professionals. They will hold a DVM/VMD or equivalent degree, or will anticipate completion of their degree prior to start-date in early Summer.

How to Apply

Montana Equine’s one-year professional internship program is open to senior veterinary students and other graduate veterinarians. Although a visit to the practice is not mandatory, it is strongly recommended.

We request the following materials:

1. A letter of intent, outlining the applicants goals and reasons for application to this program;
2. Curriculum Vitae;
3. Three Letters of Recommendation (at least two of which should be written by a veterinarian);
4. Transcripts from their Veterinary Program

Please contact Megan Triplett via email (megan@mtequine.com) or phone (406-285-0123)

We have identified specific skill areas and goals for interns. By the end of the 12-month internship, our graduating interns should be able to comfortably perform the following core components of equine practice:

Core Components

Surgery:

During their surgery rotations, the intern will assist with a variety of surgical procedures. Commonly performed procedures include orthopedic procedures (especially arthoscopic evaluation and treatment), airway surgeries and soft-tissue procedures (especially colic surgery). This exposure is expected to help establish basic surgical decision-making and technical skills. Following their internship, most interns will be competent to perform routine procedures and will have obtained the essential training for entry into a surgical residency.

Internal Medicine:

During their internal medicine rotations, the intern will assist with most advanced internal medicine procedures. Commonly performed procedures include abdominal and thoracic ultrasound, ultrasound-guided biopsies, management of equine metabolic syndrome and Cushing’s disease, as well as respiratory evaluation and treatment. Following their internship, most interns will be competent to perform routine procedures and will have obtained the essential training for entry into an internal medicine residency.

Routine lameness:

Interns are given the opportunity to participate in routine lameness exams and treatments.  We anticipate that they will become comfortable with most routinely performed evaluations and diagnostic procedures, especially including nerve and joint blocks, as well as diagnostic radiology and ultrasound.

Routine Reproductive Care:

Evaluation of breeding soundness, including rectal palpation, ultrasonography and artificial insemination.  Interns will also assist in management of problem mares, freezing semen and embryo transfers.

Obtain and Interpret Radiographs:

Interns obtain radiographs of all core anatomic regions, especially including axial skeletal studies (musculoskeletal), but also special exams such as cranial/dental/sinus studies, cervical spine, thoracic and abdominal exams.  They will become experience offering  evaluation and interpretation of routinely performed studies.

Performing Ultrasound Examinations:

The intern will assist in performing advanced exams, such as complete abdominal and thoracic scans, ultrasound-guided biopsies, transabdominal fetal ultrasound, advanced musculoskeletal exams and echocardiograms.

Perform Endoscopy:

Interns assist with endoscopy and treatment of the upper airway and guttural pouches, and lower respiratory tract.  They also perform endoscopy of gastrointestinal structures, including esophageal and gastroscopic evaluation and treatment.

Performing Routine Dental Treatments:

Interns will become proficient at evaluation and treatment of common dental procedures, including floating, as well as other routine work such as removal of deciduous caps, wolf tooth extraction, etc.  Interns will regularly assist in advanced dental procedures, such as sinus lavage, periodontal treatments and standing cheek-tooth extractions.

Routine and Emergency Field Service:

We see a wide variety of cases on field service and in-house emergency.  Interns will become comfortable with this type of work by the end of their internship. Cases include basic preventative medicine such as vaccination and de-worming, routine surgeries like castrations and caslicks, and emergencies, especially lacerations and medical colic.

Anesthesia:

Interns will perform injectable and inhalant anesthesia for routine and critical care cases. They will be trained in the use and evaluation of blood gas analysis, constant rate infusions and other advanced techniques.

Professional & Personal Development:

As an active member of the local and regional equine community, we anticipate that each intern will contribute by presenting a talk or writing an article in the local press.  Interns are also exposed to many aspects of veterinary practice management.   There are opportunities to dig deeper into aspects of management, including marketing and outreach, establishing financial benchmarks, enhancing profitability, and other areas.

We encourage each professional veterinary student to identify and pursue other interests, veterinary-related and otherwise during .

Nashville Veterinary Specialists (NVS) is offering rotating internship positions to adaptable, hardworking, and highly motivated veterinary graduates to fill our intern class. Nashville Veterinary Specialists is a veterinary specialty and 24/7 animal emergency hospital. Our primary focus is to honor the human-animal bond in all we do, by focusing on patient care, client experience, and the health of our team. We believe we can never stop improving and strive to improve in all we do.

NVS is located in a recently expanded 26,000 square foot hospital with digital radiography, computed tomography, on-site MRI, ultrasound, endoscopy, access to an on-site commercial laboratory, and more. Our full-time staff includes board certified specialists in emergency/critical care (1), internal medicine (3), neurology (1), oncology (1), cardiology (1), anesthesiology (1) and surgery (3), as well as a large group of emergency doctors. NVS is an actively growing practice and additional specialists may be added prior to the commencement of the internship.

Interns will rotate through each of the specialty services and assist in the management of cases under the direct supervision of our specialists. Interns will have primary case responsibility on ER with oversight from experienced ER doctors. Interns will have on-call duty on certain services.  Interns will also be expected to participate in weekly teaching rounds and journal club. 

Nashville Veterinary Specialists is conveniently located near the Nashville Zoo and Veterinary Ophthalmology Services (VOS) where external rotations can be done if interested in those specialties. NVS also has a sister hospital in nearby Clarksville, TN that has surgery, internal medicine, and emergency services.

Benefits include group plan health insurance, allowances for uniforms (scrubs and lab coats), and reimbursement for liability insurance and Tennessee state licensure.  One week of vacation is included, as well as one week of sick or personal time that can be used for interview days for those pursuing additional internships or residencies.  

What sets NVS apart from any other veterinary specialty practice? Not only do we focus on patient care, but core to our hospital culture is also a focus on the health of our team, our community, and the environment.

The Health of our Team:

The rotating internship at NVS is difficult and the interns will be expected to work hard, however, we recognize the importance of quality of life and the work/life balance. To foster this, we arrange monthly social gatherings for our interns outside of work.  NVS enjoys other events and incentives to help morale including an annual Wellness Week in January featuring chair massages, prize drawings and various health and wellness lectures. We also have cupcakes once a month to celebrate employees’ birthdays and other treats like various food trucks.

Our Community:

Giving back to our community is also important to us. NVS participates in various (optional) volunteer activities throughout the year. Some examples of organizations we volunteer with include the Second Harvest Food Bank, Cumberland River Compact and Room in the Inn.

The Environment:

In addition to creating a cohesive and healthy work environment, NVS is committed to sustainable environmental practices. NVS has a comprehensive recycling and composting program as well as a 5,000-gallon rainwater collection system, roof mounted photovoltaic solar panel system, skylights, and an energy recover system for heating and air. 

Finally, Nashville is located in middle Tennessee and is home to approximately 680,000 people. Although Music City is most well-known for its strong connection with country music, Nashville is the headquarters of some of the largest record labels and recording studios, creating an endless supply of many different genres of music. Additionally, there are over 10,000 acres of easily accessible public land for outdoor activities and there is a vibrant restaurant scene.  Nashville also boasts the Vanderbilt University Medical Center, an internationally renowned medical and research facility.

The Internship at Ocean State Veterinary Specialists

The internship at Ocean State Veterinary Specialists participates in the annual VIRMP match program. However, there are positions available for graduates who are graduating in the fall or winter, and able to start their program in October or February. This is a unique opportunity for these students, as other internship programs typically start in July.

The Facility:

     Ocean State Veterinary Specialists is a 24-hour hospital providing emergency and specialty referral services to the state of Rhode Island as well as parts of Massachusetts and Connecticut. The hospital is approximately 26,000sf, including three surgery suites with advanced equipment for both soft tissue and orthopedic surgeries including laparoscopy equipment. Endoscopy equipment includes a digital video monitor. Radiology equipment includes digital radiography and high resolution ultrasound machine, a CT scanner, Fluoroscopy, and full time, on-site MRI. The fully-equipped intensive care unit includes oxygen cages, mechanical ventilator, telemetric electrocardiography, defibrillator, pulse oximetry, and blood pressure monitors. In house diagnostic equipment includes blood gas and electrolyte monitors, and CBC, chemistry and coagulation analyzers. Advanced therapeutics are available including an extensive blood bank, and radioactive iodine therapy.

The Staff:

     The staff includes specialists in internal medicine, surgery, radiology, oncology, neurology, emergency/critical care, cardiology, ophthalmology, and avian/exotic medicine. There are four criticalists, and approximately twenty full-time, internship trained and experienced emergency doctors, who are a vital source of support for the interns, especially on nights and weekends. There are also residents in Emergency/Critical Care and Surgery.  

     The support staff includes highly trained technicians, many of whom are CVTs, and several also have specialty certifications. The ICU technicians are capable of placing central lines, performing advanced patient monitoring, trouble-shooting ventilator cases, etc.

The Internship:

    The 12 1/2 month internship has an emphasis on emergency medicine and critical care. The intern will spend approximately 60% of his/her time on emergency or inpatient shifts. During these shifts the intern will have access to specialists and experienced emergency doctors for consultation. Extensive daily case rounds ensure that the intern has the opportunity to learn from each case he/she sees as well as cases being managed by other doctors. The intern will also spend time on surgery, internal medicine, and elective rotations with the other specialties. In addition to case rounds, there are weekly didactic rounds for the interns presented by the various specialists. The intern is expected to participate in the teaching of technicians and visiting student externs. The internship is designed to expose the participant to the various specialties, allowing the intern to develop a special interest to pursue in a residency, but also providing a broad education in high quality medicine and surgery which will be valuable in any type of future practice. Previous interns have routinely expressed that they felt very well prepared for the jobs they went into because of their OSVS experience. The internship is designed to prepare doctors for residency, emergency work, and higher quality private practices.

East Greenwich is in the middle of the state of Rhode Island on the west shore of Narragansett Bay. It is close to scenic Newport and coastal beaches, and approximately one hour from Boston.

For further information please contact Dr. Justine Johnson at jjohnson@osvs.net. 

The Details:

-Schedule: The interns have a rotating schedule, with each rotation including medicine, surgery, elective rotations and emergency weeks.  Elective rotations can include Ophthalmology, Radiology, Oncology, Neurology, Avian/Exotics and Cardiology. On elective weeks, the intern works 4 days with the specialists, and one weekend day of ER. When on emergency weeks, the intern may be on a primary receiving shift and seeing emergency cases, or may be on an inpatient shift working with hospitalized patients that were admitted through the emergency service. The interns do work overnight shifts as part of the emergency rotations, but they are paired with an experienced emergency doctor. The overnight responsibility varies depending on the number of interns, but on average is 7 overnights every 8 weeks.  One week of each rotation may be spent at our sister hospital in Swansea, MA. This provides a different emergency experience, but also with significant mentoring.

     The interns work 5 days a week, with a guaranteed 2 days off each week. The interns work most weekends – with an average of one full weekend and 3 half weekends off per 8 week period. On days off, the intern has no clinical responsibility, and need only come in if there is a pre-planned didactic event. The interns get two weeks of vacation, but must work two of the major holidays (i.e. Thanksgiving, Christmas, or New Years) and most of the minor holidays.

     The intern must be prepared to be in the hospital from 12 to 15 hours a day when on emergency weeks (10 hour shift plus paperwork time). This typically gets better through the year as interns become more efficient.  Pets cannot come to the hospital during normal shifts, so necessary arrangements should be made for them.

-Primary Case Management Responsibility: Interns are expected to function as doctors from the first day after orientation. They are the primary doctor on their cases, and handle all of the client communications, medical record keeping, etc. They are able to seek advice and support from numerous sources, but ultimately the decisions on their cases are theirs. Students anticipating applying for this internship should take full advantage of their clinical year of veterinary school to “practice” being a doctor so they are ready.

-Skills: The typical intern will have had the opportunity to gain most of the skills needed to be able to practice general medicine or emergency medicine, and have a strong foundation to prepare them to be residents in any discipline. Skills that will definitely be mastered include: patient stabilization, CPR, thoracentesis, abdominocentesis, AFAST/TFAST, wound management, tracheal wash, bone marrow aspirate/biopsy, basic soft tissue surgeries, and much more.

-Compensation/Benefits: OSVS provides one of the most generous compensation packages available for interns. The salary is $60,000 a year, with ample opportunity to pick up extra shifts for additional compensation. Health insurance is completely paid for by the hospital, as are all state licensing and DEA fees, state VMA membership, and liability insurance. Interns also get two weeks of paid vacation.

Wisconsin Equine Clinic and Hospital is offering up to three, year-long, rotating internships for June 2022-July 2023. 

The internship program at WECH is designed to provide graduate veterinarians knowledge and experience that will prepare them for clinical practice or a residency program. The Wisconsin Equine Clinic offers hospital (including surgery, internal medicine, reproductive and emergency medicine) and ambulatory experiences with special emphasis on providing each intern with mentors in every area of veterinary medicine. The hospital is staffed with technicians 24/7. 

Interns rotate between hospital and ambulatory services. Interns are responsible for management of in- hospital cases, anesthesia for emergency cases, participation in ambulatory cases and emergency duty. The interns assume increasing case management, client communication, and solo ambulatory responsibilities throughout the year. After the initial training period, interns are encouraged to "customize" their experiences to achieve their long-term career goals. 

In addition to a competitive intern salary, benefits include contribution towards loan repayment, liability coverage, association dues and licensing fees, a contribution towards a health insurance plan, and a stipend to attend CE opportunities. Interns will also share regular scheduled time-off throughout the year. 

We strongly encourage prospective interns to do an externship at our clinic to determine if it would be a good fit for both parties. However, an externship is not required. We are happy to conduct a phone or virtual interview in lieu of an in-person visit.

To apply, we require three letters of reference and a letter of application/intent from the applicant with CV. Applicants must graduate from an AVMA accredited program, acquire a valid Wisconsin veterinary license by the start date of employment, and have a valid driver's license.

The Virginia-Maryland College of Veterinary Medicine seeks highly motivated veterinarians interested in expanding their equine knowledge and skill base under the tutelage of experienced, approachable mentors.

We are offering a 1-year Equine Field Service internship.

Our Equine Field Service program provides primary care to approximately 4,000 horses annually in the area surrounding scenic Blacksburg, VA. The service has four fully equipped ambulatory vehicles and provides routine and comprehensive state of the art diagnostic and therapeutic services including digital radiography, ultrasonography, endoscopy, shockwave therapy, IRAP and PRP.

The senior clinicians within the EFS group are board certified in internal medicine (ACVIM), and sports medicine and rehabilitation (ACVSMR). Additionally, some clinicians also provide chiropractic and acupuncture services. We perform preventive health care, reproductive services, sports medicine services, performance horse evaluations, neurologic examinations and sick horse care to a wide range of clients/patients. The caseload is varied and includes horses used for eventing, dressage, jumping, western performance, trail, endurance and breeding.

The intern is part of the team providing daily and emergency care to local clients and is responsible for case care, emergency duty, clinic rounds, medical records and presenting seminars each semester. Interested candidates are encouraged to visit the College.

Please contact Dr. Sharon Witonsky (phone: 540-231-9042 or email: swiitonsk@vt.edu  for additional information.

Virginia Tech has a strong commitment to the principle of Diversity and thus seeks a broad spectrum of candidates including women, minorities and people with disabilities.

My name is Liz Thompson and I am a surgeon at Charlotte Animal Referral and Emergency in Charlotte, NC. 

I am reaching out because we had an unfortunate scenario in which the person who accepted our position for surgical internship for the upcoming year has changed their mind on pursuing specialty surgery and decided not to sign the contract.  We were made aware about a week after he accepted, so any other interested candidates had already chosen other programs at that point. 

I thought I would just put the word out that we are still in search of a surgical intern and it could either be someone hoping to gain skills (and a research project as we have a couple options) to then enter into the match for residency the following year OR it could be someone interested in moving forward as a cutting ER doctor who wants to gain more surgical experience. 

We still require that they have completed a rotating internship. 

 If you know of anyone, I would very much appreciate you sharing my contact info with them (ethompson@carecharlotte.com).

Vacation: 2 weeks of vacation, non-accumulative.

Deadline for Applications

April 21st 2022, or until position filled

The intended program dates are July 15th 2022- July 14th 2025

The large animal internal medicine program at the University of Wisconsin-Madison aims to develop residents for a variety of careers for which ACVIM-LA board certification might be appropriate. Of the last 6 residents in our program 4 are currently in academic faculty positions and 2 are in private practice; our caseload is approximately 70% equine, and 30% food animal.

A cross section of different equine breeds are seen from Miniature horses to Draft breeds, but with a predominance of Quarter horses, Sport and Pleasure horses. The majority of the food animal caseload is comprised of very high genetic merit dairy cattle, both neonatal and adults of both sexes.

The caseload comprises a high number of emergency admissions and critical care inpatients across species, thus is suited to candidates with an interest in large animal critical care. The in-patient equine and food animal case load is further supported by a large animal surgery section comprised of 5 faculty and 3 house officers and the School of Veterinary Medicine enjoys excellent relationships with the dairy industry throughout the state of Wisconsin, most notably through the School’s Food Animal Production Medicine (FAPM) Section and Wisconsin State Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory (WVDL), the latter being located on the same footprint as the Veterinary School. There are two further board-certified large animal internists who are also involved in resident training located within the FAPM and WVDL. The program is designed to fulfill the requirements for board certification by the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine.  

The 36-month program can be approximately subdivided as follows: 

1) 24 months of clinical large animal internal medicine residency training; clinical training during this time is under the direct supervision of LA-ACVIM boarded faculty and involves case management of referral level patients within the large animal internal medicine section of the large animal hospital. As part of the training program, the resident will be expected to provide emergency care for animals during non-business hours on a rotating basis with other house officers. As the resident progresses in experience and expertise, increasing responsibility will be granted in the areas of patient management and veterinary student teaching. The resident will have considerable input into the clinical teaching program and will be provided opportunities for classroom and laboratory teaching. 

2) Across the 3 years, a total of 11 months will be made available, free of daytime clinical duties, for other activities. These activities include but are not limited to, formulation of a resident research project, writing of manuscripts, and preparation for ACVIM examinations (typically a minimum of 5 weeks of off-clinic time in each of the second and third year of the program). 

The resident is assigned a faculty mentor and collectively the resident and mentor will formulate a plan appropriate to the career goals and aspirations of the individual that also meets the credentialing pre-requisites of an approved ACVIM large animal internal medicine residency program. Portions of this 11 months are also used to meet LA-ACVIM credentialling requirements either within UW-Veterinary Care or outside the institution for clinical and anatomic pathology and advanced diagnostic imaging. 

Additional Information

The UW-Madison campus and the surrounding area have many enriching opportunities, Madison has been named the most bike-friendly city and the Dane County Farmer's Market is one of the largest in the nation; Madison has the most restaurants per capita of any U.S. city; Madison consistently ranks as a top community in which to live, work, and play; and the University is nationally recognized for academics, research, and athletics.

Hope all is well! I was wondering if there would be a way to inform your students on Bond Vet's new mentorship program, MADE?

Bond Vet today announced it is launching MADE, a proprietary mentorship program for new veterinary graduates. MADE — Mentorship, Advancement, Development, & Education — is a fully-paid, 16-week program to help new graduates transition from a background of theoretical knowledge to a best-in class application of their medicine in the real world across a variety of cases. At a time when there’s a shortage of veterinarians and an increase in pet ownership, it’s more critical than ever to create opportunities for growth and longevity for veterinarians.

MADE is designed to be an alternative to the classic internship program done in a referral hospital, where doctors rotate through specialties. Interns typically earn ~$30k for a 60-80 hour week, resulting in burnout and fatigue at the very beginning of what should be an exciting career. Veterinary medicine faces undeniable challenges such as burnout, compassion fatigue, and staffing shortages and there are limited options for new grads, most of which have traditionally entailed low-paying specialty rotations or a new job lacking structured, positive onboarding.

Ontario Veterinary College Health Sciences Centre 

Temporary full-time from July 11, 2022 to July 14, 2023 

 The closing date for applications will be Monday April 4th

Hiring #: 2022-0039  

The University of Guelph is currently accepting applications for a one-year specialty internship program commencing in mid-July 2022.  To be considered for this program, applicants meeting the below minimum requirements must submit their application by March 15, 2022. See application instructions at the bottom of the posting.  

The Large Animal Hospital of the Ontario Veterinary College Health Sciences Centre (OVC HSC) is a large referral centre located in Southern Ontario. The caseload consists of approximately 90% horses (thoroughbred & standardbred racehorses, warmbloods, others) & 10% ruminants. 

The LA Medicine Intern will join a team consisting of 4 ACVIM(LAIM) boarded internists, 3 LA medicine residents, and 7 LA rotating interns. By late August, the LA medicine intern must select a faculty advisor. While all faculty will provide support and supervision the advisor will specifically work with the LA medicine intern to set and meet goals for the internship and review any performance evaluations. Approximately 85% of the LA Medicine Intern's time will be spent with the large animal medicine service. However, the LA Medicine Intern will have the ability to consult with specialists from a large number of ancillary services.

Rotating Small Animal Medicine and Surgery Internship

Our program link is here: https://www.virmp.org/Program/Detail/13311

Strengths of our program:

1. Large number of specialists in virtually all disciplines of specialty veterinary medicine, who are readily available to interns, are very approachable, and are dedicated their profession, and to teaching interns. Interns work very closely with all specialists on a daily basis from the first day of the program. In addition, our specialists come from a wide range of backgrounds, and have contacts in many locations/ facilities and universities throughout the country, and the world.
2. State of the art equipment
3. Highly skilled technical staff.
4. Very cohesive group who sincerely like each other, and enjoy working together; this tends to create a fun, friendly working environment
5. Interns receive hands on training in advanced procedures and techniques, including ultrasound (AFAST/TFAST), pericardiocentesis (with and without u/s guidance), pleural and abdominal taps, joint taps, bone marrow aspirates, percutaneous needle biopsies, feeding tube placement (esophagostomy, nasogastric), sampling and double lumen intravenous catheter placement. Interns are also exposed to laparoscopy, and all types of endoscopy.
6. Very high case load, interns receive direct guidance from specialists, residents and intern-trained ER doctors, but also have some degree of autonomy in admitting cases, developing diagnostic and treatment plans, and client communications for basic walk in ER cases, and have exposure to a very wide variety of complicated referral cases.
7. Digital radiology allows for review of radiographs (by radiologists or other specialists) even when they are not in the hospital. We have 2 board certified radiologists on staff that does bimonthly rounds with the interns, and are available M-F for consults at any time. Additionally we utilize a radiology service to allow twenty-four hour radiology review for overnight cases if needed.
8. We have a very good track record in placing interns in residencies, and our former interns enter their residencies very well prepared for any chosen programs.

Other things to note:

1. Long hours, and a lot of hard work. However, interns get two days off in a row every week/every 7 day period. Interns are given a reasonable amount of flexibility in their schedules to allow travel for CE, residency interviews and vacations at times selected by the intern.
2. We do not have in house avian/ exotics specialist, and do not see exotic pets at our hospital. However we have a close relationship with the San Diego Zoo or Safari park, and interns with interest in zoo medicine are usually able to set up an out-rotation there (Zoo schedule permitting). 
3. There is not an organized program for interns to receive primary surgical experience. However, the surgical experience our interns receive is very thorough. Interns are expected to scrub in on elective and emergency surgical cases, are involved in the management of a large number of a wide variety of surgical cases (soft tissue, orthopedic, neurologic, ophthalmologic), and working one on one with the surgeons. As the year progressed, interns may be able to perform approaches and closure as experience, case, and the primary surgeon allows. There is no spay and neuter program; however interns have the option to rotate with the San Diego Humane Society where they receive a large amount of primary surgical experience (spays and neuters, other routine elective surgeries possible). Interns must have CA permanent license* to work at outside locations. We feel very strongly that the surgical training our interns receive is exceptional, and that they develop a very strong foundation in all aspects of surgery.
4. We do not have a GP program, and do not see routine/wellness cases. We have very close relationships with nearby GPs and interns could arrange an out-rotation if desired. Interns must have CA permanent license* to work at outside locations.

At the beginning of the year, we match up interns with specialists who will act as that intern’s mentor. Mentors are able to help interns with residency applications, and with advice on how to choose a specialty and residency, and how to maximize your chances of obtaining a residency. Mentors are also a source of support if the intern is having difficulties or going through a challenging experience. Additionally, we are all very approachable. All of us are interested in the success of our interns. We are available to help you with potential publication ideas. A retrospective study or case report is doable within the year’s time constraints for motivated and exceptional interns who use their time efficiently. Prospective studies are more difficult. If you have an idea, talk to us!

What are we looking for in an intern candidate?

The main quality we are looking for in an intern is the desire to be here, and an eagerness to learn. We want someone who is a hard worker, and who understands that they can get out of a program only what they put into it. Interns should have a positive attitude, get along with others, and truly enjoy our profession. A sense of humor can be a big attribute! Professionalism and the ability to interact appropriately with clients, referring veterinarians, other House Officers, specialists and staff is important. Dedication and attitude can go a long way- a deficiency in one’s technical experience or knowledge base can always be improved upon with hard work, perseverance, and a good attitude.

What research opportunities are there for interns?

The internship is primary a clinical year. There are no specific research projects that interns will be involved in. For self-driven interns, it is possible, and there is support from senior clinicians to complete a case report or case series. This must be done on your own time.

Licensure:

To practice veterinary medicine in California, a current California state license is required. Please see the California Veterinary Medical Board as soon as you learn that you have matched with our program, in order to get the ball rolling for your license. (There are often significant delays which can create scheduling challenges).   Their website is https://www.vmb.ca.gov/.

Housing:

Please contact our current interns for details. We have not had any interns have too much difficulty finding reasonable housing near our hospital.  As is typical for any rental property in most cities, there may be some difficulty finding rentals that allow large breed dogs.

Want to experience a small animal and exotics veterinary hospital IRL? 

Want to be mentored by experienced veterinarians with diverse backgrounds? 

Want to learn in an environment that fosters forward thinking, team work, and quality realistic medicine? 

Want to eat some really good Mexican food? 

Well, look no further than TLC Animal Hospital!

What makes us so special?  We constantly strive to practice the “golden rule.”  In a nutshell, our leadership and management are constantly working to ensure we are the type of business we ourselves would want work in as team members, as well the type of hospital we would want to take our pets as clients. 

For the more elaborate explanation: -We believe in practicing quality medicine and advocating for our patients’ physical and emotional well-being. -We believe in providing clients with a quality experience. -We believe in having a quality of life concern for our staff and fostering a healthy workplace culture.

So what does this mean for a veterinary intern? -It means you can practice medicine you can be proud of.  It means you have access to mentorship and support from Dr. Dashley, Dr. Lara and Dr. Reyes. 

When time allows, we endeavor to have interns practice procedures such as e-tube placement, spays/neuters, enucleations, declaws, skin closures, tail amputations, and tooth extractions on cadavers.  We help you work up cases and practice client communication and physical exams. -It means you can get a ton of experience and education, while still having time to enjoy the local cuisine and culture of El Paso.  We are truly a gem of the southwest, with lots of food, shopping, outdoor activities, and recreation. 

We are also within driving distance of the forests of Cloudcroft and Ruidoso, the unique vistas of White Sands, and the caverns of Carlsbad. -It means that you can earn a bit of cash to help with those pesky student loans.  Veterinary student externs are paid $1000 per week, with included hotel and travel expenses. -It means flexibility.  Just want to practice on dogs and cats and never touch a bird again?  That’s okay.  If you are interested in small exotics (sorry, no Ostriches), Dr. Dashley and Dr. Reyes are more than happy to help you out. 

Not interested in orthopedics?  Not everyone is a bone carpenter, so we understand ;) -It means you have access to a brand-spanking-new, beautiful, fully-loaded veterinary hospital.  7 exam rooms, 2 surgery tables in a dedicated surgical suite, 2 dental tables in a dedicated dental suite, 5 treatment tables, genuine isolation room, separate dog and cat waiting, separate dog and cat kennel areas, digital white board, digital radiography (including horizontal beam), ultrasound and echocardiography, digital dental radiographs, electro- and radiocautery, surgical laser, cold laser, HotDog patient warming systems, full anesthesia monitoring (including EtCO2),  and in house lab machines (chem, CBC, coag, urinalysis, and IDEXX snap tests).

Sorry, no crystal ball or magic wand, but here’s to hoping! Future plans for the practice include pursuing AAHA accreditation, incorporating CT and endoscopy, expanding our exotics services to include rabbit and rodent dentistry, and adding more wonderful associate veterinarians to our growing TLC family.  Padawan externs may very well be offered an associate position as a full fledged veterinarian Jedi upon graduation and licensure!

Why should you choose Pittsburgh? They say a picture is worth 1,000 words and this video is worth even more: vimeo.com/677892292

BluePearl Pittsburgh (PVSEC) is seeking to add another full time ER doctor to a staff of talented ER doctors supported by seven specialists in critical care, plus specialists in surgery, internal medicine, medical and radiation oncology, ophthalmology, neurology, radiology, dermatology, anesthesia and cardiology.  

The 35,000-square-foot facility opened in 2008 PVSEC and has a long standing reputation of providing excellent emergency and referral care to the Pittsburgh and surrounding tristate area.   Pittsburgh Veterinary Specialty & Emergency Center North (PVSEC North), a BluePearl Veterinary Partners hospital in Pittsburgh, PA, is located in the North Hills of Pittsburgh and is the most comprehensive multi-specialty and referral hospital in Western Pennsylvania.   We have a house officer program consisting of rotating interns, emergency and critical care residents, and surgical interns and residents, which leads to a very collegial and team approach to patient care.

It’s a fast-paced environment with growth and advancement opportunities, which not only promotes outstanding patient care but also learning and growing with training programs through BluePearl University and BluePearl Science. PVSEC also partners with Penn Foster for associates to continue their Veterinary Technician education and licensing, as well as an onsite veterinary social worker to support our associates and clients.

 This location houses a number of advanced treatment and diagnostic services, including a 64-slice CT, 1.5T MRI, Linear Accelerator, 2 ultrasound machines, video endoscopy, digital radiography, ventilators and dedicated suites for endoscopy and ultrasound. Services such as a blood bank, comprehensive in-house laboratory with commercial level equipment and on-site social workers also support our hospital teams, clients and patients. The ER doctor will spend most of their shifts working in the North Hills hospital but could occasionally cover the South hills shifts as well.   This can also be flexible and negotiable.

 Pittsburgh, tucked away in the Allegheny Mountains of southwestern Pennsylvania, is a mid-sized metropolis that has been ranked one of the most livable cities in the U.S. It is a small city of ethnic neighborhoods, scenic hills, trees, rivers and farmland, and offers world-class fine arts, museums, and educational institutions. It also boasts three professional sports teams, a zoo, aquarium, and the National Aviary, excellent schools and health care, and a wide variety of outdoor and family activities, including Idlewild, Kennywood and Soakzone, Pennsylvania ‘s best theme park and water park. Despite Pittsburgh ‘s big city offerings, people are friendly, crime is low, rural settings are within commuting distance, and cost of living is well below average.  Why should you choose Pittsburgh?
