Internship at the equine hospitals "Dierenkliniek De Morette" and "Dierenkliniek De Bosdreef"

The equine hospitals "De Bosdreef" and "De Morette", are offering every year 8 rotating internships in equine medicine and surgery in each hospital.

The caseload in both hospitals together is about 1100 surgeries per year, more than 3.000 lameness examinations and about 500 cases in the fields of internal medicine, neonatology and opthalmology.

The hospitals are also equipped with a digital gamma-camera unit, digital radiography, standing MRI, high performance ultra-sound machine, video-endoscopy and shock wave.

All applicants must be DVM or have an equivalent degree in Veterinary Medicine. Preference may be given to individuals with equine experience or credentials in this field.

He/she will participate in providing medical and surgical clinical services as well as emergency care. Rotation between the various departments (radiology, anaesthesiology, internal medicine, surgery...) is organised.

Interns will participate actively in the organisation of the hospital. They will also be encouraged to set and meet personal goals such as preparing case reports or scientific presentations.
