Cherry Hill Animal Hospital are a 4 full-time and 1 part time doctor, companion animal hospital. Our Fear Free certified clinic combines a community and family feel with state-of-the-art technology. With the support of NVA, we can provide complete medical and behavioral health care to our patients and clients, while maintaining our close-knit community connections. We offer our clients routine wellness and illness care as well as ultrasonography, digital radiographs, dental radiographs, cutting laser, therapeutic cold laser, and behavior medicine. We understand the importance of maintaining a positive, respectful, uplifting hospital culture and genuinely love working with people that share that same value.

Students will work closely with the supervising veterinarian to gain experience in gathering patient histories, performing physical exams, creation of treatment plans, diagnostics, dentistry services, observing/assisting or performing surgical procedures, and medical management of patients. In addition to practicing their clinical skills, student externs will have the opportunity to practice their communication skills with the medical team, support staff, and clients.

Most externship experiences range from two to eight weeks depending on student and hospital schedules. All veterinary students (regardless of class year) are encouraged to participate in NVA externships.

Veterinary students who are in the clinical portion of their education are eligible for a travel/living expense stipend. Click HERE to view list of stipend amounts and HERE for details on the stipend program.
