| Are you looking for an opportunity to build expertise under the guidance and mentorship of a skilled veterinary professional? Michigan Humane, the oldest and largest nonprofit animal welfare organization in Michigan, is offering veterinary externships at our state of the art medical facilities in Detroit, Westland, and Rochester Hills, Michigan. Our facilities incorporate a full service veterinary practice, animal shelter and a shelter medicine team under one roof, allowing our externs to practice in a private practice-like setting while also serving the community. As a Michigan Humane extern, you will have the opportunity to gain exposure to a diverse caseload not seen in a traditional veterinary practice setting. Our medical team oversees the daily and emergency care of animals in our clinic and shelter. Externs will benefit from working alongside a team of skilled veterinary professionals while working in top notch medical facilities, utilizing state of the art equipment, including ultrasound, high speed dental, digital x-ray, digital dental x-ray and cautery. Our Externships are designed for veterinary students seeking hands on clinical experience and mentorship in a clinic and/or shelter setting. Each extern will be assigned an experienced veterinary professional as their personal mentor, working to develop their skillset and expand their clinical expertise. Students may chose from one of the following areas of focus: General Practice, Shelter Medicine, Dental, Surgery, Cruelty, or Behavior.
