Job Description

Animal Emergency Hospital of North Texas is excited to welcome third- and fourth-year veterinary students to experience our emergency externships. You’ll see dogs, cats, and exotics on an emergency basis and collaborate with multiple independent specialties housed in the next-door building. 

Program Overview: 

Our student externs complete two-week blocks with a typical working schedule that includes Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and one weekend day. You will see the most action when you work the 2 p.m. to 10 p.m. swing shift. Externs partner with the attending veterinarian on each shift, caring for incoming emergency and hospitalized patients and participating in patient rounds three times per day. You may also collaborate with one of seven associated specialty services housed in our building. 

Why choose Animal Emergency Hospital of North Texas?

Our student externs enjoy collaboration across multiple disciplines and are given the opportunity to handle and examine exotic patients in addition to dogs and cats. Our hospital is equipped with many creature comforts, including CT, an in-house laboratory, digital cytology analysis, endoscopy, a defibrillator, and more. We foster a collaborative culture where the patient’s needs always come first. 

Grapevine, Texas, has easy access to the Dallas-Fort Worth metropolitan area, so sporting events, entertainment, and recreation are all available. Don’t miss the aquarium, Six Flags, or the famed Fort Worth Stockyards.
