I admit to not knowing the difference. http://forums.studentdoctor.net/archive/index.php/t-175505.html The clinic I take my animals to has two vets, one DVM, one VMD. I also admit to never *investigating* their licensing, and both have theirs hanging on the wall. If this phony vet was a kind soul, or just a very good con artist, I can see how folks would trust him. Just curious as to how many of us have *not* checked out our trusted vets licensing, or am I a gullible rarity. Ardith [Posted in FML 6218]
