VTMED 5601
Small Animal Community Practice

Course information provided by the 2020-2021 Catalog.

Our community practice, housed in a stand-alone facility as of June 2018, offers full services for our patients of all life stages including preventive medicine, radiology, dentistry, and surgery. Our primary care practice is designed to provide our clinical year students with experience in appointments, procedures, surgery, client communications, and cloud-based electronic medical records to prepare them as entry level veterinarians upon graduation from the CUCVM. The goals and design of the Small Animal Community Practice are to model a non-academic general practice setting where students act as primary case clinicians collecting histories, performing physical exams, assessing their patients, and creating diagnostic and therapeutic plans individualized to a given patient and client. Student clinicians are supervised by rotation faculty and supported by licensed veterinary technicians.


Permission Note Enrollment limited to: fourth-year veterinary students.

When Offered Fall, Winter, Spring, Summer.

Satisfies Requirement Required component of Clinical Rotations (Foundation Course VI).
