Externship Experience An externship experience at an NVA hospital will give students the unique prospect to understand the day‑to‑day operations of the practice, and to gain valuable hands‑on clinical experience. Although every NVA hospital is unique, we all have some things in common: an workplace that is supportive, committed to excellent medicine, and provides exceptional service to animals and the people who love them.
