Veterinary Extern - Specialty
Animal Medical Center of Seattle
Job Description
Although every Ethos 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.
Supporting a constant state of learning is most important at AMCS. We foster an environment of learning and support amongst all team members regardless of their experience level. Our hospital has an amazing group of specialists who enjoy teaching and currently provide continuing education seminars for our referring community. We also have a designated externship coordinator who closely monitors each extern and ensures all paperwork and required skills are completed. We focus on providing training that will resonate to ensure an extern is successful in their career in veterinary medicine.
An externship experience at an Ethos hospital gives students real-life clinical experience in a single or multi-specialty hospital, and the opportunity to apply their knowledge and skills while working alongside experienced clinicians, board-certified specialists, current interns, and residents. Hands-on skills that may be practiced or observed include TPR’s, examinations, anesthesia, surgical procedures, catheterization, ultrasound, and other diagnostic procedures as they are available.
Most externship experiences range from two to eight weeks depending on student and hospital schedules. Externships at the Animal Medical Center of Seattle are offered to 3rd and 4th year veterinary students.
