About the hospital: Bell County Animal Clinic has been providing exceptional health services to the animal community in the Tri-State area since 1972. We have a highly experienced staff and four skilled, compassionate veterinarians to see that beloved animal companions have as many happy, healthy years as possible. Our goals as an animal healthcare team are to provide the best care possible for our patients, be a positive influence in the community, and maintain a work environment that encourages staff members personally and professionally.

What we offer externs:

  • Industry leading Veterinarian and support staff retention rates - Hear why our Veterinarians are "Happy Here" on our videos page.
  • We invest in our team members’ professional growth and mental wellbeing, and many of our team members hold Compassion Fatigue Professional certifications.
  • We live by our core values: Serve, Evolve, and Trust.
  • “They allow me the freedom to practice as I see fit…We can make almost all of our main decisions ourselves, at the clinic level. Their up front focus on honesty and improving over time keeps surprising me each time they demonstrate it. Veterinary medicine is not always the prettiest, easiest, happiest, or most satisfying line of work as we all know, but I can't imagine doing it for any other group. VetEvolve has been able to retain a small feel over time, as it grows, which is huge for me.” - VetEvolve network DVM.
