Internship/Externship Information

---

Established in 2000, Idaho Equine Hospital’s internship is a 12-month training program designed for graduate veterinarians seeking advanced experience in equine practice.

The goals of our internship program are to:

• Provide high-quality training and hands-on experience within a supportive, collaborative, and educational team environment.
• Develop each intern’s knowledge and clinical skills in equine medicine, surgery, and health management through exposure to a diverse caseload in a high-quality equine practice.
• Build confidence and strong communication skills through experience working with a wide range of clients, patients, and clinical situations.
• Prepare interns to pursue their professional goals, whether entering a residency program or transitioning into a high-quality equine practice.

Our program offers a competitive salary and benefits package, along with on-site housing while interns are on call.

Idaho Equine Hospital offers externship opportunities for students in their second through fourth years of veterinary school. Externships typically last two to four weeks and provide valuable private-practice and clinical experience to complement each student’s veterinary education.

Students interested in scheduling an externship should contact

Housing is available for participating externs.

Students considering an application to our internship program are strongly encouraged to complete an externship with Idaho Equine Hospital, as the experience is an important part of our selection process.
