About This Opportunity

We are a busy, full-service 11‑doctor practice located in Barrie, ON. With over 25 years as an AAHA accredited hospital, we are Fear Free and Feline Friendly certified. We see a variety of breeds of dogs and cats, as well as pocket pets and the occasional pig.

Student externs will work closely with a supervising veterinarian to develop clinical and communication skills. The externship typically lasts between two and eight weeks, depending on student and hospital schedules, and is reserved for students in their final clinical year of veterinary school.

  • Create treatment plans, order diagnostics, and provide dentistry services.
  • Observe, assist, or perform surgical procedures as appropriate.
  • Manage the medical care of patients and support client interactions.
