The 1994-1995 intern class consists of 35 interns representing 14 veterinary schools. Interns rotate as members of service teams through the Departments of Medicine and Surgery. There are 14 clinical services and each consists of senior staff members, residents, and interns, who work together on all the service's cases.
Services act as integrated units which facilitates teaching and patient care.
Interns also experience working with a variety of specialty services throughout their internship. The Department of Pathology is closely integrated with the clinical services, providing laboratory support seven days a week. An important component of the internship program is comprehensive service rounds, which consist of a complete review of every patient, occurring twice daily. In the outpatient clinic, staff doctors are available for consultation on any case. More than 300 lecture hours are given annually and informal seminars are held continuously.
