Opposing Midlevel Practitioner Proposals

As the collective voice and leading advocate for our nation’s veterinary profession, the AVMA is working across numerous fronts to oppose proposals to create a midlevel veterinary practitioner—a role that would endanger animal safety, public health, our food supply, and client trust. 

The AVMA and our members fully understand the grave danger posed by such a position. We’re joined by a wide range of other national veterinary groups as well as the Colorado Veterinary Medical Association, whose state’s voters will decide in November whether to authorize a midlevel veterinary position in Colorado.
