Externship Program

Externship – Learn and Grow with an Inspired and Fun Team

Perrin-410 Animal Hospital has a defined purpose –  Happier, Healthier Lives for Pets and the People who love them. Vet Students are definitely people who love pets, so we feel that it is part of our purpose to make sure that students receive the best, hands on education to be found.  We are uniquely able to provide a well-rounded externship due to our wide range of cases which includes routine wellness care, acute and chronic illness, trauma cases, and a vast array of surgeries including orthopedics.

We pride ourselves on our highly trained, superior veterinary staff with over 30 years of experience. Our vets are exceptional diagnosticians, individually trained to utilize the state-of-the-art technology and equipment we boast at our facility to ensure that both our clients and their pets receive the utmost attention and care.
