Overview
The Luke and Lily Lerner Spay/Neuter Clinic provides students at the Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine with opportunities for both pre-clinical and clinical surgical training while serving pets and people in need. The Clinic provides high level spay neuter services to shelter and community animals while training veterinary students in the clinical competencies needed for anesthesia and surgery of healthy feline and canine patients. The pre-clinical surgical training programs run out of the Lerner Spay Neuter clinic include Introduction to Anesthesia and Small Animal Surgical Techniques (ISAAST), which is a required class for all third-year students, and the second-year clinical rotation elective. We offer a fourth-year clinical elective, Primary Care Procedures (PCP), which has a focus on spay neuter, other primary care surgery, and dentistry.
