Meet our newest intern, Cole Rockwell!
Cole has recently completed the academic part of his veterinary program at Ross University. It was three years of study. The second “leg” of his program is one year of clinical rotations, his “hands-on” training. Since January of this year, Cole has been based at Colorado State University (CSU) in Fort Collins, CO, working in their veterinary teaching hospital. Part of this internship includes “externing” at other practices. Cole recently completed a two-week rotation at Angell Memorial Animal Medical Center in Boston.
This week, he will be working here at AVH. He will be available to see work-in appointments Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday afternoon. All of his evaluations and assessments will be reviewed by a doctor on staff. Any drugs and/or prescriptions he recommends will be reviewed and approved by a doctor on staff.
Cole recently passed his Boards, the NAVLE (North American Veterinary Licensing Exam). He will complete his clinical stint at CSU in December of 2025.
Cole completed his bachelor's degree in animal science at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst in 2021. He will receive his veterinary degree from Ross in December of 2025 in the top 5 of his class, and will then become a licensed veterinarian!
