Lexington Equine Medical Group

Equine Ambulatory Externship 

Lexington Equine Medical Group is an established practice that is accepting externs in Lexington, Kentucky.  Lexington Equine is currently a six, full time veterinarian practice with a large, busy and diverse clientele. Each current senior veterinarian has provided services to this area for well over a decade and has served to successfully mentor many interns and veterinarians. We provide equine specific veterinary services to the Central Kentucky area. The practice is equipped with full digital radiography and ultrasound capabilities along with the other necessary diagnostic and treatment modalities required to be successful in practice.

Our ambulatory caseload is predominately associated with all aspects of the Thoroughbred Industry and is supplemented with many other disciplines and breeds. The practice also takes care of polo strings, eventing barns, gaited horse clients and pleasure horses.

Lexington Equine has a strong team approach to practice. We all work together to provide the highest quality care to our patients and clients. We seek a candidate with good interpersonal skills and the desire to expand professional knowledge and skills. Lexington Equine Medical Group accepts veterinary interns every year, so interested externs are encouraged to apply to our program. 

The extern must have access to a vehicle in order to meet the veterinarians at a starting location daily. Housing may be provided at the request of the extern. We recommend the extern spend at least one week with us, however this is not a requirement and we will consider all proposed dates. 

Please send a letter of introduction, CV, and proposed dates if interested to Allison Haspel, DVM, Intern/Extern Director, at ahaspel@lexingtonequinemedical.com.
