Feline Medical Center offers up to a $2500 travel stipend for clinical year externships.
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 Associate Veterinarians 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.
Dr. Moran is an ABVP (feline) specialist. Dr. Sims has 13 years of ultrasound experience. We offer advanced ultrasounds, FAST ultrasound assessment and echcardiograms. Endoscopy (upper and lower GI) is also offered. Dental care whole mouth extractions with dental Xrays. Feline only, cat friendly environment. We have a lot of internal medicine cases, 2nd opinions, wellness, surgical, dentistry, referral center, and endoscopy.
Most externship experiences at The Feline Medical Center range from two to eight weeks depending on student and hospital schedules. This externship is designed for clinical year students who have a strong interest in and commitment to feline care beyond graduation, providing them with hands-on experience in a feline-only practice. It's an excellent opportunity for those looking to work in a feline focused clinic following graduation and deepen their knowledge and skills in this specialized field.
