Training Vets - Home for Pets!

decor

We, the doctors and team of Brook-Falls Veterinary Hospital & Exotic Care, Inc. are committed to caring for exotic pets and helping them to live long, healthy and happy lives. We cannot do it all alone. The education and experience veterinary students receive in school working with exotic species is often very limited and varies greatly from school to school. We are in a unique position to improve this situation and improve the lives of exotic pets. Since we purchased the practice in 2007, we have had an active externship program that allows veterinary students in their final year of education to come and learn about these special species and how to help care for their unique needs. Through the years we have hosted countless students from various universities throughout the US, as well as several international students, in an effort to spread the knowledge.

In order to give students valuable experiences that they can take with them, we have partnered with HAWS and ElmBrook Humane Society. They graciously supply exotic pets needing sterilization prior to being put up for adoption and we assist the students in performing these surgeries at no charge to the organizations. It is a win/win for all: the students get valuable experience and the pets get to be placed with loving homes. Steph Kurth, one of our vet student externs, recently performed Ovirectomies on two guinea pigs, Lucy and Ginger from HAWS. Both Lucy and Ginger are now up for adoption!

“Dr.’s Bloss, Follett, Wittenburg, Lien, Schimek, and Kase —- Thank you all so much for allowing me to tag along with each of you during these past two weeks! With most of my special species experiences being in wildlife and research-based, I was really excited to observe and learn from exotic companion animal veterinarians in a private practice setting. Being at Brook-Falls and listening to your thought processes and conversations with owners has really helped to solidify husbandry and disease issues that were just barely touched upon in our vet school curriculum. I also appreciated the opportunities you gave me to practice handling animals, doing diagnostic and therapeutic procedures and especially the opportunity to perform ovirectomies on the guinea pigs. Thank you again for taking the time to teach even during your busiest days. Special thanks to the rest of the Brook-Falls team for making me feel welcome and also for helping and teaching me along the way. “ – Steph Kurth
