An externship experience at an NVA hospital will give students the unique opportunity to understand the day-to-day operations of the practice, and to gain valuable hands-on clinical experience. Although every NVA 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.

Thornbury Veterinary Hospital offers an excellent externship program for veterinary students eager to gain practical experience in a modern, state-of-the-art facility. Located in the heart of beautiful Thornbury, Ontario, the hospital provides a full range of veterinary services, including general practice, advanced orthopedic surgery, dentistry, and more. Externs will have the opportunity to work alongside a committed team of friendly, highly trained professionals, including experienced veterinarians and dedicated veterinary technicians. This program is ideal for students looking to enhance their skills in a supportive and dynamic environment.

Students will work closely with the supervising veterinarian to gain experience in gathering patient histories, performing physical exams, creation of treatment plans, diagnostics, dentistry services, observing/assisting or performing surgical procedures, and medical management of patients. In addition to practicing their clinical skills, student externs will have the opportunity to practice their communication skills with the medical team, support staff, and clients.

Most externship experiences range from two to eight weeks depending on student and hospital schedules. All veterinary students (regardless of class year) are encouraged to participate in NVA externships.

Veterinary students who are in the clinical portion of their education are eligible for a travel/living expense stipend.

We are committed to fostering an open and inclusive environment where everyone belongs, our people feel comfortable and confident to be themselves and reach their full potential regardless of age, race, national or ethnic origin, gender identity or expression, marital and family status, religion or other belief, culture, sexual orientation, or disability.
