DVM Student Externship

St. Charles Veterinary Clinic is offering veterinary students the opportunity to enhance their education by working with our skilled team of veterinarians.  You will gain valuable practical experience in our five-doctor small animal practice located in west suburban Chicago.

We offer a two-week externship but can be flexible according to your availability and the requirements of your veterinary college. Students will work approximately 40 hours each week, with a $200 per week stipend.  Out-of-State students and students outside the Chicagoland area, please indicate if you will need housing.

Students will work under the supervision of experienced veterinarians, using the latest equipment and treatments available.  Our services include general wellness care, all aspects of internal medicine, oncology, soft tissue and orthopedic surgery, laser surgery, cold laser therapy, ultrasound, digital radiology and dental x-ray.  Students will also participate in case reviews with the doctors as they share ideas with each other to ensure the best course of treatment is provided to each patient.  The doctors and staff of St. Charles Veterinary Clinic are confident that our externship will provide veterinary students with a rewarding and positive experience.

If you are interested in additional information about our practice or to schedule an externship, please contact our Practice Manager, Laura Bercasio, by phone at 630-584-7404 or via email at laurabercasio@stcharlesvet.com.
