Student Opportunities

Brewer Veterinary Clinic is a teaching hospital and we offer several types of shadowing and externship opportunities. Veterinary medicine is a constantly evolving field, and it's certainly not easy. It's important for students to experience life in a veterinary hospital before making the commitment to pursue a career in this field. Students are the future in veterinary medicine, and we love to mentor and guide them in their journey to a wonderful and rewarding career.

Job Shadowing

Students 12 years of age or older can spend part of the day with us, shadowing a veterinarian or technician.
