Job Description

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. 

We are the largest small animal practice in Gresham, Oregon which is located just outside of the Portland metro with ideal access to Mt Hood and all outdoor adventures. We have an excellent support staff and a team of 8 experienced collaborative doctors whom all work together to provide the best care for our patients and an all-inclusive experience for our clients. With our recent growth and expansion, we place a premium on maintaining a community culture with regular doctor rounds and team meetings to facilitate continual learning and improvement.

At Mt. Hood Pet Medical students will work closely with the supervising Associate Veterinarians 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 at Mt. Hood Pet Medical 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. Click  HERE to view list of stipend amounts and  HERE for details on the stipend program.
