Testimonials from our previous externs

Marshall S. - Midwestern University

I did a month-long externship at Horizon Animal Hospital and it was amazing! The doctors there are very knowledgeable, compassionate, and patient. They make opportunities for you to learn new things and practice important skills. If you ask, they are more than willing to allow you to do things like surgeries and will guide you while you do them. Their facility is well kept and easy to work in. The front staff and technicians were friendly and competent. They were also willing to help in any way that they could. Overall, it was a great experience and I would recommend it to anyone who wants a safe environment to learn in while having fun.
