Veterinary Extern

Fairfield Animal Hospital is the only 24-hour emergency animal hospital in the BC Southern Interior. We are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including all holidays. We do not book routine appointments such as vaccine updates, spays or neuters; we operate solely on an emergency triage basis.

We currently utilize Ultrasound (Afast/Tfast), CT, Digital radiography and in-house lab (including blood gases, coag panels) for the majority of our diagnostics. Our technical team is highly skilled and motivated, the majority of the team is trained in Recover CPR and teamwork is our focus.

Most externship experiences range from two to eight weeks depending on student and hospital schedules. Externships at
**Fairfield Animal Hospital** are offered to 3rd and 4th year veterinary students.

Veterinary students who are in the
**clinical portion** of their education are eligible for a travel/living expense stipend. Click HERE to view list of stipend amounts and HERE for details on the stipend program.
