Overview

Belair Veterinary Hospital has a small but mighty and highly experienced team. Most of our clients have been coming to Belair for years. While we are a smaller hospital, we offer competitive services including rehab, laser, x-ray, a full dental suite including dental x-rays, in-house ultrasound for fast scans, exotics, etc. 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. The stipend amount for Belair Veterinary Hospital is $1,500. Responsibilities
