Virtual Tour Provides Public with Opportunity to View Features of New Veterinary Hospital Facilities

December 9, 2022

Since opening in May and June, the new David and Bonnie Brunner Purdue Veterinary Medical Hospital Complex has attracted a lot of attention.  To give people an opportunity to get a virtual first-hand look at the new facilities, the College of Veterinary Medicine has made available a virtual tour on the Purdue Veterinary Medicine website.  

The virtual tour enables people to view the David and Bonnie Brunner Small Animal Hospital, Equine Hospital and/or Farm Animal Hospital. Each of the tours includes a number of stops showcasing features of the new facilities, from new reception and waiting areas, to surgical suites, diagnostic imaging, emergency and intensive care, internal medicine, dialysis, physical rehabilitation and neurology, anesthesia induction, the Farm Animal Hospital drive through unloading area, cattle treatment area, and the farm animal anesthesia and surgery complex.

The tour site was developed by the PVM Web Team of Wright Frazier and Blake Holaday, with support from the PVM Communications Team and Lee Ann Happ, PVM Lead Operations Administrator, and the cooperation of the Purdue University Veterinary Hospital administration, clinicians, and staff.  If you haven’t already, check out the tour and help spread the word about it.

The virtual tour is available at vet.purdue.edu/hospital/virtual-tour.
