DVM Student Externship

Company Description

Animal Urgent Care of Bentonville is available for urgent care pet needs Sunday through Sunday 2pm - 10pm including weekends and holidays. Due to these limited hours and direct/shared relationship with Animal Emergency and Specialty Center of NWA, located in Springdale we do not hospitalize overnight, and instead directly transfer to the AESC for continued care. All the AESC and AUC doctors have a wonderful working relationship and can be used while on shift for additional consultation on cases. 

Our hospital consists of an open floor plan with an aesthetically-pleasing waiting area, 2 exam rooms with drop down exam tables, large treatment area including an exam and wet table, ample kennel space, and Doctor's office that overlooks treatment. We have an extensive pharmacy including topicals, orals, injectables and controlled. 

Our state-of-the-art equipment allows for quick diagnostics results in real time such as Idexx in house bloodwork, clotting factors, CRP, complete urinalysis, and all SNAP tests (proBNP, 4dx, Feline Triple, Giardia, Parvo, Lepto, cPL/fPL, cortisol levels etc). We also have digital xray and options for radiologist consults. We use a Vscan Air, portable handheld ultrasound probe which is excellent for tfast, afast, and cystocentesis. Our staff is well trained to read out fecals, ear cytology, etc.
