Vet Science Class
For more than 25 years Oakland Animal Hospital has hosted a high school program for individuals with a special interest in the science field. This program allows students interested in veterinary science to participate in a clinical setting. Students from three different Rochester schools are hand selected to participate in this class. Fifteen senior physiology students meet once weekly in the evening at Oakland Animal Hospital. Lectures from various doctors on staff are given to these individuals. This class allow students to observe many clinical procedures they would not normally see in a regular school setting, including endoscopy, ultrasound, laser procedures, orthopedic procedures, ophthalmology procedures, as well as blood and urine studies. Throughout the program students are required to shadow our doctors and witness procedures first hand. OAH is proud to help make a difference in our young people and encourage their interest in veterinary medicine.
Oakland Animal Hospital is delighted to participate in the community, other organizations that the staff of OAH has happily promoted the following: Assistance League of Southeastern Michigan, Crittenton Hospital Foundation, , Dancing in the Streets, Dinosaur Hills Nature Preserve, Leader Dog for the Blind, Girls Night Out, Rochester Parade, Rotary, Special Olympics, and the World Vets International Aid for Animals .
