Even before opening the doors of the Animal Medical Center of Troy, MO in the spring of 2000, Dr. Ryan McCann’s goal was to practice the best possible veterinary medicine while fostering a friendly environment with a highly knowledgeable staff.
Today, Dr. McCann has more than achieved that goal. What began as a small practice with one veterinarian and only a few exam rooms has now been transformed into a 8,600 square foot facility with two full time doctors offering everything from routine wellness care to state-of-the-art diagnostics, surgery, cancer care and even laser therapy.
Heartland Veterinary Partners is proud to offer externship programs throughout the Midwest.
The veterinarians and staff at HVP practices feel a strong commitment to give back to the profession by contributing to the education of veterinary students. We hope that HVP’s externship program will offer you the opportunity to observe a wide variety of cases, expose you to new procedures and protocols and provide you a chance to work with our experienced veterinarians and staff. We are also happy to provide insight for you on issues related to business, practice management, and career placement as it interests you.
