This is a three-year program that supports 4-6 ECC residents. Our mission is to create functional, board eligible critical care doctors that practice a high standard of care in private practice and use critical thought when making medical decisions. In support of this activity, the CCVS residency works continuously to advance animal health and well-being by providing educational experiences both to and by residents, performing meaningful clinical research, and providing outstanding veterinary care. While striving towards this vision, we remain aware of the values that guide our mission. Central to these values are a drive for excellence, trust, respect, integrity, innovation, and compassion. These values represent the underlying standards and principles that we embrace collectively and individually.
An additional objective of this residency is to train residents as competent emergency surgeons. Residents are therefore trained in emergency surgery by ACVS Diplomates. Those with a preference for surgery are given more opportunities for experience, but all residents will receive supervised training.
To Apply-
Applicants must have completed an internship or have equivalent experience and be able to obtain a MA state license.

Testimonial-
“CCVS gave me ideal preparation for life as a specialist. They provided the foundation I needed to sit and pass my board exam on the first attempt and gave me the skills and mentorship I needed to run my own department only months after finishing the program. CCVS has a residency that blends the rigors of private practice case volume with the same emphasis on learning and teaching found in many academic settings.”
