Placement Providers
Student placements form an integral part of some of the degree courses. Please note however that not all NAVP members are able to provide students with placement opportunities, either through personal choice or perhaps because they haven’t yet completed the necessary pre-requisite of 2 years in clinical practice first in order to be able to take students. Therefore, if you are a current Veterinary physiotherapy student searching for placement opportunities, please do not use the normal 'Find a Member' pages of this website to try to find practitioners. The members listed in the file below are all willing to take students studying Veterinary Physiotherapy degrees for placements and fulfil the necessary requirements, and therefore please only contact members from this placement provider list.
