The mission of the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital is to provide top-level medical services, whilst training the next generation of veterinarians. Students are responsible for most patient care duties, and learn to perform diagnostic and therapeutic techniques. At all times, students are double checked and closely supervised by house officers and faculty members. |
| As daily feeding, walking and grooming are performed by the assigned student, most dogs become very attached to this individual. In many instances, client communication is undertaken by the student, and you can expect an update at least once a day if your dog is hospitalized. |
