What do we want from you?

• A drive and willingness to learn outside the classroom and in the “real world.”
• An openness that clinical practice differs from what we experience in vet school. Learn, develop, and ask questions.
• You drive your externship! On your first day (or prior, if you prefer), come prepared with an outline of what the next two weeks look like for you.
• Align expectations for your time with us. Some of the most successful externships are those driven by the student.
• What are the areas of Medicine you want to learn more about (e.g., endocrine, metabolic, preventative care)?

Think about other areas critical to being a well-rounded DVM!

• Surgery skills and Dentistry (remember the anesthesia protocol part of this and the
  interpretation of dental radiographs).
• Obtaining patient history, physical exam, diagnostic approach, and treatment plan.
• Client communication- think wellness vs. sick (chronic vs. acute) exam (how do they
  differ?).
• Medical note development.
• Conflict resolution, operations, staffing, other, etc.
