Equine Internship - Commencing July 2026 & October 2026 (2 positions available)
This is a 12-month position. The internship is primarily hospital based but candidates may be asked to perform other clinical activities within the practice as caseload requires.

The applicants should become well-grounded to enter private practice or apply for further post-graduate training.
The interns will be responsible for in-patient care, client communication and will assist with out-patient appointments, emergency admissions and surgery. Prior experience of equine anaesthesia is an advantage. The interns will be encouraged to complete a case report/series with the final aim of publication in a peer reviewed journal and relevant support will be given for this.
Chine House Veterinary Hospital is a well-equipped and RCVS accredited equine hospital with MRI, stabling for at least 20 in patients, a supportive and friendly team of vets and nurses including a well recognised specialist in Equine surgery. The caseload is very mixed providing a broad base of experience.
