Rood and Riddle Equine Hospital

Any additional information the practice would like to share on their internship program:

Rood and Riddle has always promoted excellence in equine practice and advancement in the equine profession. We strive to provide the best training experience to our interns and clinicians as a group. We promote research, continuing education, and collaboration with top research facilities across the country. A clinic-owned recipient herd of approximately 300 mares allows for the opportunities to practice veterinary skills and techniques, conduct labs, and be involved in research if interested. Rood and Riddle supports interns in attending local lectures and educational opportunities with numerous outside programs, including The Gluck Research Center, The Kentucky Horse Park, and The Kentucky Farm Manager's Club.
The practice organizes several wet labs taught by in house clinicians specifically for the incoming interns. These labs typically take place within the first 2-6 months of the start of the internship. The Rood and Riddle Reproduction facility owns over 300 recipient mares facilitating wet labs which include abdominal ultrasound, joint injection, radiology, rectal palpation, bandage, and suturing. In addition to providing expenses for attendance at one approved veterinary conference of the intern’s choice, the practice hosts several regional and local CE events in which the interns are encouraged to also attend.
