Littleton Equine Medical Center

Our mission is to provide recent veterinary school graduates with experience and mentorship in a busy, multi-doctor equine private practice. Our practice provides high quality medicine and service to a large and diverse clientele, thereby exposing our interns to all facets of equine veterinary practice. Our doctors and staff are committed to ensuring our interns receive adequate mentorship, hands-on experience, and independence as a doctor to prepare them for either specialty residency training or to be able to enter equine practice with the confidence, knowledge, and skills needed to be successful.

Interns rotate on a weekly basis through 6 different services, spending approximately half of their time in a referral hospital setting and the other half as an ambulatory veterinarian. During the first 2 months of the internship, interns will work closely with staff doctors for one-on-one training to sharpen and hone their clinical skills. As the year progresses, interns will see and manage some cases on their own while always having a staff doctor available for consultation. There is always a surgeon and internist available for hospitalized cases.
