Job Shadowing & Externships

Did you know that MRAH encourages those who want to learn about veterinary medicine to come learn with us? From the elementary aged, to adult students in veterinary school, our doctors do what they can to help mold potential future veterinarians.

We welcome job-shadowers from elementary schools, high schools, trade schools, pre-vet college students, and veterinary students. With our help, these students are able to immerse themselves in the field, and help them to learn and decide if veterinary medicine is right for them. Throughout the year you may see a student tagging along with one of our doctors trying to learn as much as they can about the veterinary field.

Call our office today at (317) 291-3932 if you would like more information on our mentoring opportunities!

Pet Rescues & Pet Groups

We not only work with your pet but are proud to work with a few local pet service organizations as well as rescue groups. We help in a variety of ways including helping provide medical care for needy pets and donations of goods or services for their charity events. We are proud to support these excellent pet organizations. Check them out; you may find your new best friend waiting for you at a couple of them!

Guardian Angel Basset Rescue

https://www.bassetrescue.org/

The basics of Guardian Angel Basset Rescue are simple – GABR rescues Basset Hounds from Illinois, Eastern Missouri and Indiana that find themselves in bad situations. Once the Basset is in our possession, we provide the needed vet care - that cost is our largest expense. After he leaves the vet, our new friend goes to one of our wonderful foster homes. Without the foster homes we have, our organization would disintegrate. After the foster home evaluates the dog, our adoption coordinators help the Basset find a good home.

Dogs are fantastic companions, but they can be more than just family members. When life presents itself with difficult challenges, our furry companions can lend a paw and assist with many daily tasks, including detecting changes in your sugar level or getting help in case you fall.
