This IGS internship is a blessing in disguise. I had a lot of family problems this year; so I decided to have some time alone and so decided to apply for IGS. I have little background on veterinary medicine but I aspire to be a veterinarian soon. We assisted with taking vital statistics of the animals, and fed them, and even bathed some of them.

I love post-surgery work & my sweet co-interns

What I loved about our internship, is the post-surgery work that includes rehabilitation and integrating animals back to their families. I can see how happy these animals are when they are reunited with their family... It makes my heart melt hihi. Ms. Foyer was my mentor and she was like a mom to me. I never felt alone in this entirely different country. My fellow interns are like my sisters and brothers, and always willing to extend a helping hand when I need one. Thanks guys!

in my internship with IGS, I assisted with anesthetics, surgical scrubbing, and other technical procedures..... we are given fun lectures and on-hand experiences on animal rearing, husbandry, breeding, and product development........ the scope of veterinary medicine is extensive, as it covers domesticated and wild animals...... i am happy that I took this internship....... my friends already signed up for next summer.....
