ABVP Headlines

ABVP’s respected and fully-accredited certification process is designed for veterinarians who demonstrate expertise in a broad range of clinical subjects and display the ability to communicate medical observations and data in an organized, professional manner.

Unlike other AVMA specialty boards, which are devoted to specific disciplines or organ systems, ABVP awards species-oriented certification in ten different practice categories.
