ACVS Certifies 65 Veterinary Surgery Specialists
65 new veterinary surgery specialists were board-certified by the ACVS.
The American College of Veterinary Surgeons has board-certified 65 veterinary surgery specialists.
“Successfully completing the certifying examination of the American College of Veterinary Surgeons is a personal and professional accomplishment by these former residents,” said Larry Bramlage, chairman of the ACVS Board of Regents. “We, as an organization, and I personally wish to congratulate these new diplomates on the culmination of their training, the mastery of the certifying examination. I wish them all a rewarding and fruitful career as a specialist in veterinary surgery.”
Some 1,403 veterinary surgeons are board-certified. Almost 65 percent of ACVS diplomates are small-animal surgeons and the rest are large-animal surgeons.
