Start Your Veterinary Career!

Spend time at our clinic and see if the veterinary field may be the right career for you!

 

Observational Veterinary General Practice experience, with a taste of specialty.

Iron Mountain Animal Hospital is an extremely progressive, multi-doctor general practice. Due to our location (3 miles north of the Wisconsin border, in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan), we have to be willing to have a large breadth as well as depth of veterinary knowledge and experience. This makes our clinic uniquely capable of providing a meaningful learning experience in a general practice setting. We also collaborate with outside resources, including a board certified surgeon and an ultrasonographer to provide our community access to care that they would typically only find in a larger city. These outside resources also help us provide an even greater learning experience for our students.

Students will have the opportunity to observe all aspects of the veterinary field, including waht it's like to be a Veterinary Technician/Veterinary Assistant,

Company Profile

 

Company Overview
The Iron Mountain Animal Hospital clinic's mission is for our clients and patients to look forward to visiting our clinic because of our staff’s dedication to deliver excellent client service, high-quality medicine, and compassionate care. We strive to fulfill this mission by maintaining beautiful, modern facilities and hiring and training the best staff possible. Our goal is to continually improve our clinics by investing copious time and capital into staff development, continuing education, and modern procedures and techniques. The Iron Mountain Animal Hospital has been in operation since 1972, and our new building was built from the ground up in 2010. Our area is an extremely beautiful place to live with year-round outdoor activities. Hiking, biking, camping, skiing, snowshoeing - if you can do it outdoors, you can do it here! We enjoy a low cost of living and a wonderful sense of community. There is a large focus on downtown beautification and more community events are organized each year, including half marathons/5K's, beer festivals, music festivals, biking events, and more. We even have a community outdoor lunch event with bands downtown every Thursday! Our schools are rated at higher than average quality for the region of the country, and offer small class sizes and dedicated teachers. Michigan offers "school of choice", so you can chose which school would be best for your family. And, because we are right on the border, you can chose which state you want to live in (Michigan or Wisconsin), based on what is best for your family!
