Join Us at Oak Knoll Animal Hospital for a Focused, Hands-On Externship to Enhance Your Clinical Skills in a Cutting-Edge and Collaborative Environment
Why Choose Oak Knoll Animal Hospital?
Oak Knoll Animal Hospital is a fast-paced, small animal practice
offering a hands-on externship for veterinary students who want real experience
in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.
Externs will work closely with two highly engaged veterinarians—one with a strong passion for general practice & exotics; and another with a heavy surgical focus and acupuncture. Our well-trained support team allows doctors to practice at the top of their license, and externs to learn with hands on experiences!
Located in the Quad Cities, East Moline offers a small-town feel with easy access to outdoor recreation, river trails, and larger metro amenities—just 2.5 hours from Chicago where our new PetOne Veterinary Training Center is located!
This externship is ideal for motivated 4th year students who thrive in a busy, team-driven practice and are eager to learn and produce. Externs are eligible for a $2,500 stipend to support travel and living expenses.
