🩺🐄Introducing Abby Underhill from Plain City, Ohio! Abby is the first of our two summer internship students who was selected from a very competitive group of applicants. Abby is entering her third year of veterinary school at Ohio State University.
"What drew me to vet med was the ability to help not only animals, but people as well. I like being able to play an active role in an animal's life through ensuring health and wellness so that a producer can use the animal for its intended purpose," she said. "I especially enjoy working with large animals, especially dairy cows and calves."
As our summer intern, Abby will spend time in the clinic with office staff, in the milk and blood labs with our technicians, and she will also ride with several of our doctors on farm visits and emergency calls. Her major project for the 4-week internship includes a study on calves treated with a microbial supplement.
"I am most excited to see a wide variety of cases at Waupun Vet, and to learn and have hands-on opportunities with the different approaches to diagnosing and treating animals," Abby said.
"Student mentorship is an ongoing focus here at Waupun Veterinary Services,” Dr. Nick Mayer of WVS said. "Please welcome Abby to your farm if you see her in the upcoming weeks!"
