The Area of Emphasis in Small Animal Internal Medicine was developed to prepare qualified veterinarians for a residency in small animal internal medicine. The program is aimed to train the intern in all aspects of small animal medicine, including diagnostics and management of endocrine, respiratory, gastrointestinal, urinary, infectious, and other systemic diseases. Graduates of these programs will gain a broader understanding of the basic scientific principles and clinical practices related to small animal internal medicine as preparation for future specialty training in the field (residency). The objective is to attract and train a cadre of highly qualified veterinarians in the field of small animal internal medicine and potentiate successful transition to a residency training program.
