Our staff is Fear Free trained, and we are pursuing AAHA accreditation in the near future. We are currently running 4 surgery days and are focused on continuing to grow out our ever-expanding dentistry services.

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, externs will have the opportunity to practice their communication skills with the medical team, support staff, and clients.
